Yes, it stores full paths.
Right now the default is:

    ## Where the standard .db file is found.
    dbexecdir = $(libdir)/gcj- at gcc_version@
    ## Name of the default .db.
    db_name = classmap.db

That is fine by me.  I think I'd have to resurrect the patch to add a
gcc configure option for this, since it seems weird to look in
/var/cache in a typical gcc build... ordinarily we're constrained to
$prefix.

Whatever the gcc and java project packaging folks want here, I will
implement.  Just let me know.
