I don't believe the defaults are entirely adequate nowadays, even for 
linux. I usually copy my own previous configure parameters, or those 
reported by someone else whose testsuite results look OK.

As you''ve probably noticed (I've reported each testsuite to 
gcc-testsuite), libgcj has continued to build on my 3.3.3 and 3.3.4 
installations, on cygwin-1.5.9-1.  Many of the exception handling cases in 
the testsuite hang until timeout.  I'm mildly curious about the pch 
facility of 3.4, whether it is out of reach on Windows.  I'm more curious 
to know how others managed to build gfortran of 3.5.
