It is indeed a bug in javahelper that occurs when an architecture
has !GCJ_NATIVE_ARCHS but also !JAVA_BROKEN_ARCHS.

With the attached patch, which disables Java™ support on m68k,
all is well. I think we win, overall, by doing this, since the
amount of db-java users is very low, whereas the stability of
m68k builds of this core package goes up dramatically if Java™
is not needed/used.

But then, I’m no longer an m68k porter. Just my 0.02 €…

bye,
