The kernel mconf prefixes all config option with CONFIG_, the one in
crosstool-NG uses CT_ as prefix, thus an option named CC_LANG_JAVA_USE_ECJ
will be available as CT_CC_LANG_JAVA_USE_ECJ

Something like the attached patch?

Added! :-)

What does it do? Is it sensible to have it:
1- always?
2- upon request (config option)?
3- only occasionally (set it in CC_EXTRA_CONFIG)?

As I understand the option by its name, 3 seems the best way.
