The Makefile as currently written assumes that either the interpreter
works, or you can use the system-wide .db to provide compiled objects
for ecj1.
I'm afraid I didn't consider Windows when writing this. Sorry about
that.
I'm open to solutions. What would work best? We could compile the
ecj jar, though that is likely to be pretty unfriendly -- it is rather
big.
