Configuring gcj and ecj.jar to build icedtea6

[Robin Cook]

Found part of the problem.   
My egrep, grep, and fgrep are in /usr/bin instead of /bin and
my gawk, tail, and head are in /bin instead of /usr/bin.

Not well enough versed in the auto tools to know what to change to make
it check for those progams in both /bin and /usr/bin.

Once I created links for those in the directory your configure is
looking for them in the compile went farther.  I am now getting the
below error...

/usr/src/icedtea6-1.10.4/bootstrap/jdk1.6.0/bin/javac -g -encoding ascii

Any suggestions on how to correct this error?

Thanks
