XFAIL = eXpected FAILure, you can ignore them.

Could you edit tests/gcj4.test and change
  ./configure GCJ=gcj >stdout
to read
  sh -x ./configure GCJ=gcj >stdout 2>&1

then run
  env TESTS=gcj4.test VERBOSE=x make -e check
and send the output?


I'd like to understand why you get

 checking dependency style of gcj... none

instead of

 checking dependency style of gcj... gcc
