I updated Rhino in Fedora 10 and 11 (should be available via yum within 
a couple of days) to 1.7-r2pre, which is the most current version. I 
have also changed the requirement in acinclude.m4 to fall back on 1.7, 
rather than 1.6. IcedTea will still build with older versions of Rhino, 
but not all applications that depend on OpenJDK will work with 1.6.

        * acinclude.m4: Upgraded rhino to 1.7 from 1.6.
