But unlike JPackage.org, you should be running aot-compile-rpm to get 
natively-compiled .so's for gij (in addition to the .jar files), which also 
implies you need to BuildRequire the java-gcj-compat devel package (not just 
java-devel) and your packages will be arch-specific (but much faster for gij 
users than if you don't do that).

The people who worked on GCJ in Fedora and aot-compile-rpm all hang around on 
the fedora-devel-java-list, so you may also want to ask there for some 
packaging guidelines.
