While we're changing things here I'd like to propose that the global
database be moved from /usr/lib/gcj-x.y.z/classmap.db to somewhere
like /var/lib/gcj/classmap.db.  Unlike the per-package files the the
global database is machine-specific, so putting it in /var makes us
more LSB-compliant.  One practical advantage of this is that it would
allow our rpms to be used on systems with readonly /usr partitions.

Cheers,
Gary
