Both gjdoc and cp-tools check for 'java' availability.  But actually
only gjdoc contains a single call:

java-live -classpath /usr/share/java/antlr.jar antlr.Tool -o
gnu/classpath/tools/gjdoc/expr ../gjdoc/src/gnu/classpath/tools/gjdoc/expr/java-expression.g

It might actually make sense to generate these data with antl at 'dist'
time and store the result.  This way we'll require a working 'java' at
'dist' time (nothing too bad with it) but this will simplify the build
process.
