What's the benefit of doing the GCJ AOT-compilation steps as defined
in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/GCJGuidelines? Doesn't
everyone just use OpenJDK these days? It adds a bunch of extra stuff
to every Java spec file and makes all java packages arch-specific
instead of noarch, which always feels a bit weird ...
