Thanks for this, I'll look at this shortly - although, my gcj skills are rather non-existent! <<
Mine too; I've always regarded gcj as somewhat perverse. But the patch only fixes the Java equivalent of a #include so it doesn't change any program logic. I've done some basic testing of the compiled binary and it works for my needs, so it's probably OK. It may well build for 4.4, too - it certainly did before the patch was added, but I only have one 4.4 machine left here and it's running our Asterisk server so I'm not about to load it with RPM builds.
I may have some other srpm's to contribute in due course; I kept supporting RH9 for some time with my own rpm's and may have to rebuild some other packages as I upgrade various systems around here. I think folks have got most things covered, though, and your own repo certainly saved me a lot of work when I first started doing things with CentOS - thanks!
Feel free to contact me off-list if there are any problems with that srpm, obviously.
Best,
