Oh, that sounds a shame. I think that was one of the many things wrong with 
autoconf/automake - it didn't have basic features as standard like looking 
for java even, and didn't seem to interact much with the Free Software 
community. The kde version of libtool didn't work with gcj for *really* 
obvious reasons, and I never even knew who to report it to or whether anyone 
was interested. And obscure things like working with Objective-C/GnuStep 
actually got worse over the years.
