Hi Mark.

As I know you've heard, we've released a (mostly-)fully-compiled
eclipse.  See:

    http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/java/2003-08/msg00025.html

There are pointers there to all the sources.  The individual patches
aren't all in the upstream cvs yet, but they're available in the
SRPMs.

Our testing indicates that this eclipse starts up a bit faster than
eclipse running under the IBM 1.3.1 JDK.  That must be a speed
record...
