Indeed, this would be preferable -- when you first filed this bug I took
a look in the hope that this was the case.  Alas it was not.  Perhaps
this is worth taking up with the gcc team?

The reason is that the gcj-3.3 package only provides /usr/bin/gcj-3.3,
not /usr/bin/gcj.  The /usr/bin/gcj binary only comes with the generic
gcj package, which libreadline-java does not build-depend on.

Ben.
