Ah right.

Right.  BTW, it appears gcc 4.5 and later have a new option -static-libstdc++.
I don't know if that would work better than the options currently used.

Yes, the defines.h change I refer to is the one that removes the Mac
clause.  It fails earlier without that change (I've been hitting it
on most builds now I have SYSTEM_ZLIB set), so the patch is an
improvement, even if it doesn't work in all cases.

An odd default, though I can understand why, given OpenJDK's history.

Can I take that as it's good to push? :-D
