Hmm, well, not sure about that too.  We shouldn't put hard
dependencies into gcc's build about target-libraries, but yes - if
unavoidable - a automated way to detect version-number I would
welcome, too.  It would be even better if we could rethink actual the
need of loading java-library within libgcc's cygwin's/mingw's crtbegin
at all.  I am actual not that sure, if we need this at all.

Cheers,
Kai
