ok. so I'll use

 - branches/boehm for the import of the bdwgc branch
 - branches/gcj/bdwgc-20121125-merge for the merge proposal

I'll start with what I currently have, and probably leave the libjava build on
the branch broken for some time. At least its stage1 material.  Instead I'll
give the classpath merge priority, still considering it worth having for the 4.8
release.
