Modifying gcc34 makefile to compile with java

[David Pratt]

Hi Kris. This is a libgcj in gcc issue and have posted to 
java at gcc.gnu.org list. I see that there is a similar reference to 
something similar on Darwin platform which has FreeBSD roots. It seems 
that unwind symbol may be getting introduced into libgcj (so that when 
compiled produces the error). I believe this symbol provides support for 
libunwind for specific platforms other than FreeBSD. l'll have to track 
down the person responsible for the FreeBSD port since they should also 
be interested in determining a solution.

Regards,
David
