-static causes errors

[Chris Gokey <cgokey at gcmd dot nasa dot gov>]

I'm running into the same problem as the post below.  When I try to compile 
a simple Java program, it works fine.  But, if I try to make a static
executable, I get many errors just as described below.  Is -static broken
under gcc version 3.2?  If so, what steps do I need to take to ship my 
executable to another Linux box with an older version of gcc (it has 2.95)?  I 
tried copying over the libgcj.so file, setting my LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to it,
but, I still received error.  I can give my specifics errors if necessary,
but I'm not entirely sure what I'm doing is correct.

Thanks,
Chris

Hello:

I am a newbie to gcj, so please forgive any obvious questions.
I searched the mailing list archives to no avail.

I am using the gcj that was installed when I installed RedHat 8.0
on an new machine.

gcj -v give me this:
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2/specs
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2/libgcj.spec
rename spec lib to liborig
Configured with:
../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info
 --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --disable-checking --host=i386-redha
t-linux --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.2 20020903 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7)

When I try to compile a simple Java app using this command line, everything
works fine:
gcj -O3 --no-bounds-check --no-store-check --main=VPAnalyzer
VPAnalyzer.java -oVPAnalyzer

But, if I try to make a static executable using this command line:
gcj -O3 -static --no-bounds-check --no-store-check --main=VPAnalyzer
VPAnalyzer.java -oVPAnalyzer


I get these errors:

Any ideas?
