They aren't used. I did a full bootstrap with a native-ecj.
Unfortunately f10 doesn't come with a precompiled ecj anymore in the
distro: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=473674
natively compiled ecj is still much faster than anything else though
(especially since there are so many small compile runs, startup and
"warmup" kill you in that situation).
