There is still logic in Kawa to use-old style mangling (such as "$Dt" for ".") when Kawa
is build for Android.  Notice the /* #ifdef Android */ in gnu/expr/Magling.java.

This code is supposed to be enable by the gnu/kawa/util/PreProcess.java helper,
specifically if you configure --with-android.

So the first step is to make sure your working copy of Mangling.java actually does have the USE_SYMBOLIC
set to false.  If it doesn't, delete the file selected-java-source, and re-run configure and make.
Check the PreProcess in the 'make' log.
