No, but that reminded me, the libtool fixup script needs a small tweak
to adjust.  I just pushed that to Ports git.

OK.  FHI, last month, I tried sending the following patches upstream:

top-level: fix config.rpath for cygwin/mingw
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2011-07/msg01578.html
http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2011-07/msg00181.html
http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2011-07/msg00563.html

cygwin/mingw: update LIBGCJ_SONAME
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2011-07/msg01579.html

libjava: add comment to libtool-version
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/java-patches/2011-q3/msg00023.html

AFAICS they've gone absolute nowhere.  Maybe you'll have better luck.
