OK, that sounds easy but I'm not really sure how to do it... I'm
looking at the Makefile in libjava and the output of doing a "make
libgcj.la", which looks like it should contain the information I need.
But frankly I'm not really sure which of the huge amount of .o files
should be AR-ed together in the .a file.
Can I somehow edit the libjava/Makefile to convince libtool to do the
dirty job for me?
