Hi.
This isn't a bug. gcj requires its own class library to operate properly. Giving it the JDK 1.4 class library simply won't work.
(Arguably it should work for `gcj -C', but that is not the bug you reported, and we already have a PR for that anyway.)
In your example, gcj fails because it can't read the JDK 1.4 class file. That too is a bug, and I believe it has already been fixed for 3.1. However, even with that fix what you're trying to do won't work.
