Checked in r175182, with one additional comment.  We still welcome tracking down what exactly doesn't work and a bug report and fix for that, until then, I think life is too short to have java be broken for too long.

Mike,
   Also note Ian's comments on -fPIE/-pie in http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2011-06/msg00215.html.

Also backported for 4.6.1.

Thanks. Can we get this on gcc 4.5.4 as well?

As commented in the PR, I'd have to see a confirmation that the bug exists in gcc-4.5.x _and_ that the patch fixes it (with no regressions).  That had been previously stated for gcc-4.6.x, which is why the backport to 4.6.x.  Sorry in advance if it has already been stated, I might have missed it.

This is definitely a problem in current gcc-4_5-branch without the backport of the SYSTEMSPEC fix...

[MacPro:~] howarth% gcj-fsf-4.5 --main=testme -O testme.java
gcj-fsf-4.5: Internal error: Abort trap: 6 (program ecj1)
Please submit a full bug report.
