libjava/defineclass.cc won't build on Solaris/sparc

Sun Dec 2 13:53:00 GMT 2001

The problem appears to be that INTERPRETER is not defined, so the
declaration of the global variable `character' is omitted, but there
are references to this variable outside the #ifdef INTERPRETER.
I'm not sure whether it would be better to move the functions that
reference character into the ifdef, or to move the declaration (and
the initializer?) out of the ifdef. Also, it would be advisable to
use attribute((noinline)) to prevent inlining, since now that we have
out-of-order inlining, moving a function after another doesn't prevent
it from being inlined.
Please advise on the best fix for this problem.
