Is gcj supported or still not? It seems lots of Fedora advanced packages
depends on this.

Can you please detail the big picture how this will work at the end?
For example building a package requires running natively some conftest.c
tests to discover availability of GPM (for example). Will it be needed
to patch every SRPM or there is emulation thing etc...

Thanks for the excellent work.
