I also had trouble with classpath-native after upgrading my build 
machine to Fedora 19.
The jamvm crashes with segfaults during the configure step in 
classpath-native.

My (internal) fix for this was to copy the cacao-initial recipe (with 
dependent files) from
https://github.com/openembedded/openembedded/blob/master/recipes/cacao/cacao-initial_0.98.bb
into my layer and add PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/java-initial = 
"cacao-initial" to the local.conf.

For getting this to work I also had to add "vm.mmap_min_addr=0" to 
/etc/sysctl.conf

Cheers,
