This patch alone will, apart from fixing CACAO builds, break the PPC/ARM JamVM builds.
please backport
http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg/icedtea6/rev/8b157b07b859
as well to make both JamVM and CACAO builds work on PPC and ARM using 1.11.

I am ok for this patch to go in as long as the extend fix to cover JamVM on all archs also gets backported to 1.11.

Cheers
