Hi Dalibor and others,

I've changed the compilation of the regression steps to compile all
tests in a single step, which should speed up the regression tests
in particular for users using ecj / javac on a JVM, as that eliminates
around 150 JVM invocations.

This is the great news for me! After I changed to use ecj for all
platforms, the regression testing itself took more than 51 hours
on m68k (Mac-IIci, netbsd) :-< For the next weekly regression test,
I can see whether things becomes better or not.

I hope they will become radically better ;)
The patch reworked the detection of the Java programming language
compiler to use code from ac-archive.sf.net (slightly adapted).

The auto detection itself is welcome, but still I want to have
explicit way to specify which compiler is my preference. Since
I still use jikes for some other staff, but when making regression
test of kaffe I need to use ecj (jikes does not like classpath-0.96.1).


Yeah. Just pass the compiler you want to use to configure in the
JAVAC variable. configure JAVAC=jikes should do the job.

cheers,
