 I'm trying to get running with GCJ but can't seem to find a version that
 works with my Intel Mac running 10.4.  So far I've tried gcj34 as well as
 gcc42, gcc43, gcc44-20080712, and gcc44-20080718.  From checking the
 issues lists, it appears that GCC 4.2 should work for Intel; however I get
 {{{
 internal compiler error: in uses_jv_markobj_p, at java/boehm.c:245
 }}}
 trying to compile HelloWorld.java.  I was able to Google one or two non-
 Mac occurrences of this but they didn't lead me to anything useful.  The
 issues list seems to verify that I need to upgrade to 10.5 to run GCC4.3
 with Java support so I didn't continue trying to get that version to work.
 The GCC4.4 port notes that some language front-ends are not yet supported
 but doesn't say which ones.  Is Java supported yet?  How can I help?
 {{{
 $ gcc-mp-4.4 DoIt.java
 gcc-mp-4.4: DoIt.java: Java compiler not installed on this system
 $ type gcc-mp-4.4
 gcc-mp-4.4 is hashed (/opt/local/bin/gcc-mp-4.4)
 }}}
 My installation was pretty simple although I've tried
 uninstalling/reinstalling a few times and only have 1 MacPorts version of
 GCC at a time (Apple's GCC is installed at the normal location):
