The compiler discovery configure tests should be imported from e.g. Java-GNOME
so that configure fails if a valid java compiler is not installed.  As it is,
the build fails if jikes is not installed.

Good point.  This is a long time on my todo list, but nobody complained about it
:-)  So, now it's time...

Ok, again i found a good macro on http://ac-archive.sourceforge.net/, namely
AC_PROG_JAVAC.  CACAO is now using these two files:

http://ac-archive.sourceforge.net/Java_Support/ac_prog_javac.html
http://ac-archive.sourceforge.net/Java_Support/ac_prog_javac_works.html

I removed guavac and added ecj.  I hope this is working for most people.
