Peter,
I am in the process of checking in new gcc42-4.2.4-1000 info and
patch files which backports the same configure support for
--disable-libjava-multilib
so that regeneration of the configure files can be avoided. I have been
using this approach in gcc43 and gcc44 but never backported it to gcc42.
