You mean that gcj-dbtool -p would print
/usr/lib/`$CC $CFLAGS -print-multi-os-directory`/gcj-4.0.0/classmap.db
and you'd need to pass that through shell after making sure $CC and $CFLAGS
are properly defined?
Then you'd put the burden on rpm packagers, because in rpm %post
$RPM_OPT_FLAGS certainly aren't set (and, you shouldn't require
gcc to be installed just to install Java packages).

Reminds me, gcj-dbtool should be probably moved from gcc-java subpackage
to libgcj now that it is used not only during compile time.
