Great, I can help you ! do you have a TODO?

I read your scripts (very clean code, thanks!!) and I did some small 
changes (attached files):
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1) set default configure options (for my project)
2) set default main class on configure $MAINCLASS
3) set native gcj jars $NATIVE_JARS on configure
4) add generic $ext_jars  to extend classpath
5) added the "make native" option on the Makefile
6) tested on debian an gentoo ;)

STILL TODO
1) check gcj, gij, etc... version

-------------------------------------------------------------------
It will be nice to build the classpath for extra libraries, but there 
are not true jar finder on distribs (or I dont know how todo). I found 
different way:

a)gentoo, pkg-config --variable classpath or java-config, but not all 
packages are configured for that ...

b)debian, I found nothing, there are some idea but nothing is really done
http://java.debian.net/index.php/

c)redhat, I can't test it!

There are some hacks possible for debian and gentoo with tools like 
find, dpkg and qpkg.

Olivier
