Matthias, I don't know why you are surprised that no ecj1 is built. The build process is supposed to use ecj.jar if a pre-existing ecj package isn't installed...
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/java/2006-12/msg00070.html http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32712 I am loath to attempt to backport too many changes that work in gcc 4.4 because we can't be certain all the required changes to support them exist in gcc 4.3. It might be more sensible to examine if we can create an ecj package for fink that gcc43 could use in its build. Jack ps The existing gcc43-4.3.0-1001 package builds pdftk fine here using ecj.jar instead of ecj1. Also, remember there is a limit to the number of times I can rev gcc43 without folks rebelling. I already get enough complaints that they have to build java support in the first place.
