It shouldn't be a big problem. jar is only needed to create libgcj.jar 
and any other .jar files that are a part of the build. A "gjar" 
replacement written in java would be built to depend only on libgcj.so, 
so it will be built and working by the time we need to create the jars.

Well, of course it isn't.
