I would like to see some more analysis of what the underlying reasons  
for failure are.

-fpie works fine with darwin 9 and darwin 10 libjava [XCode 3.1.4 and  
3.2.5 respectively, bootstrap w/4.2.1]
(modulo suppressing it when building test-suite  .dylibs *** - which  
is a testsuite options handling issue - not a fundamental problem).

so:

make -k check-target-libjava "RUNTESTFLAGS=--target_board=unix/-fpie\{- 
m32,-m64\} "

passes without regression (re the no pie case) given that pie is  
suppressed for dylibs.

So is your proposed patch a work-around for (as yet unreleased)   
darwin 11 tool-chain bugs or ... ?

Iain,
   I suspect these failures are related to those seen in the boehm-gc
testsuite when those tests are built with the default -pie linker option. I'll
have to repeat a build without the patch but a cursory examination suggests
ecj1 is miscompiled with -pie. If I remove -no_pie from /sw/lib/gcc4.7/lib/libgcj.spec
after building and installing gcc trunk, the crashes in gcj don't occur.
IMHO, my patch is effectively doing the same thing that Mike checked in with...

# Ensure we don't try and use -pie, as it is incompatible with pch.
BOOT_LDFLAGS += `case ${host} in *-*-darwin[1][1-9]*) echo -Wl,-no_pie ;; esac;`

The libjava build uses gcj.spec to build ecj1, etc and Mike's change is insufficient
to cause -no_pie to be used for those cases (since those parts of the libjava bootstrap
don't honor BOOT_LDFLAGS).
                 Jack
ps I'll repeat the bootstrap without my patch and open a PR for the gcj failure.
However, I believe it was an exception failure which would place us in the system unwinder
and that will be extremely difficult to debug outside of Apple.

This is from a complete bootstrap with...

BOOT_LDFLAGS += -Wl,-no_pie 

Otherwise you are not duplicating darwin11's -pie linker default. Again it is
essential that you cause ecj1 to be linked with -pie to manifest this problem.
Also note the comments in...

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2011-06/msg00211.html

which argue that there is little to be gained by building gcc as PIE. If that
is valid, my patch achieves that. The problem is that the infrastructure for
gcj and ecj1 currently doesn't allow BOOT_LDFLAGS to be used when ecj1 is built.
Note that if I go back to the build directory (without my patch),  relink
ecjx with -Wl,-no_pie and copy that over the installed ecj1, the crash in gcj
disappears.

Iain,
   This change should be unncessary since -pie on the linker only operates
on executables (hence the name PIE).

On darwin < 11 .. which don't default to linking pie:

As stated, it's a kludge to allow fpie to be put as a test-suite  
option...
... since the options are passed verbatim to library builds, all the  
dylib builds fail otherwise ...

if there is an alternate way of filtering 'fpie/fPIE' out of dylib  
builds, that could be more globally applied the to the test suite,  
that would be a good fix to make.

(the kludge is expedient to test the hypothesis that pie works with  
libjava on darwin 9 & 10 -- FAOD: I am not suggesting it for trunk)...
