Oops, I was in the same directory.

The autogen.sh script breaks now because it can't run jikes. That's 
O.K., as I want to build the library using kjc anyway. But I can't get 
that to work.:

bash-2.05a$ ./autogen.sh --with-jikes=/tmp/topic/current-jit3/bin/kjc
*** Info: Generating GNU build toolchain scripts and files for GNU Crypto.
aclocal -I .
automake --add-missing --copy
autoconf
./configure --enable-maintainer-mode 
--with-jikes=/tmp/topic/current-jit3/bin/kjc
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... /usr/bin/gawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... yes
You have CLASSPATH ., hope it is correct
checking for gcj... no
checking for guavac... no
checking for jikes... jikes
checking if jikes works... configure: error: The Java compiler jikes 
failed (see config.log, check the CLASSPATH?)
*** Info: Done.  Type 'make' to compile GNU Crypto.

where the log file says:

configure:1772: checking for jikes
configure:1788: found /HG/hiwis/topic/jikes/bin/jikes
configure:1798: result: jikes
configure:1855: checking if jikes works
configure:1869: jikes  Test.java

Found 1 system error:

*** Semantic Error: You need to modify your classpath, sourcepath, 
bootclasspath, and/or extdirs setup. Package "java/lang" could not be 
found in:
                .
                .

configure:1872: $? = 1
configure:1876: error: The Java compiler jikes failed (see config.log, 
check the CLASSPATH?)

so it seems to be picking the wrong compiler.

cheers,
