But to get that coverage, testers will need to have gnat installed.
Will that become a requirement for middle-end patch regression testing?
No, the language will only be built if a suitable bootstrap compiler
is present.
I know that. My question was aimed at soliciting opinions on patch
submission policy in the case that libjava build & testing are dropped
from standard bootstrap tests.
You already need to have ecj installed, so it's one dependency more and
one less.
I may be mistaken, but I don't think that is true. Building and testing
of libgcj *does not* require ecj.
