I have not as yet followed Peter's advice on exporting CFLAGS and
leaving COPT -- but that's not to say that I won't.

Exactly.

Right. Each distributor can use its own buildrootpolicy -- which
handles man page compression, executable stripping, and the like. Not an
issue -- but Mandrake historically bzip2's them.

I thought you did up the current build way ... but I could be mistaken.
I need to see if the python interface makefile Does the Right Thing now
WRT RPM_BUILD_ROOT/DESTDIR processing. The main make stuff now acts
sanely inthe presence of RPM_BUILD_ROOT -- well, except the perl
interface, but that's a special case.

Jikes is open source, right? I know it is available for Red Hat (ships
with it on one of the applications CD's,IIRC.) How does a Jikes-built
JDBC sound to people? Ormaybe I don't understand the Java Way well
enough to decide. Gotta learn it a little....
