Description:   Opened: 2008-04-14 14:50 0000 
Each >=sys-libs/db-4.2*.ebuild applies two java-related patches, which change
some autoconf-input (m4-files), but autoconf is not called anywhere, so they do
not have any effect:

  files/*-jni-check-prefix-first.patch
  files/*-listen-to-java-options.patch

In ChangeLog they are first mentioned in 2006:

  25 Jul 2006; Joshua Nichols <nichoj@gentoo.org>
  +files/db-4.2-jni-check-prefix-first.patch,
  +files/db-4.2-listen-to-java-options.patch,
  +files/db-4.3-jni-check-prefix-first.patch, 
  +files/db-4.3-listen-to-java-options.patch, +db-4.2.52_p4-r2.ebuild,
  +db-4.3.29-r2.ebuild:
  Revision bumps to support new Java system.

Although they are not a problem itself (except wasting space and
maintenance-time), they confused me somehow while porting to aix (in prefix),
where I need to do (sort of) eautoreconf.

------- Comment #1 From Robin Johnson 2008-08-16 22:27:02 0000 ------- 
All 4.x slots are now fixed to respin the build system properly, to take into
account the java patches and the SONAME fix from bug #182972.

It should also be a lot easier for you to handle it in Prefix now (barring one
minor annoying issue in 4.2 where you need .jnilib for Darin).
