Looks ok overall.  I would probably put the result of `gcj-dbtool -p`
into a shell variable.

Is %{name} the name of the current RPM?
If so then I think this is incorrect.  We need to merge everything
into the master .db.

Can we get this in somewhere as an RPM macro?  And, if so, where?
jpackage-utils?  java-gcj-compat?

I looked at the current gcc4.spec a little.  It seems to me that we
will have to just put the host architecture name into the path to the
.db file.  Assuming that would work, I don't really know about RPM
multilibs.

I CC'd Jakub for advice.  Jakub, what should we do to make the
built-in .db file work with multilibs?  I will implement whatever it
is we need.
