try, but please do:

gcj -o smood.exe --main=smood.Main smood/Main.class smood/*/*.class 
smood/*/*/*.class smood/*/*/*/*.class

The ICE happens only if (but not iff)

   1. the files are given explicetely as .class files
   2. the output file is specified (without it works)

If you can produce this with the files of SMOOD.jar only, then there's 
(maybe) no bug when compiling with jars. From your compilation result 
with the actual version in the CVS we can decide what further to do (bug 
resolved, stripping the code further, and so on).

But the showed error message and the real reason can be in no relation 
to each other! Is there a deeper bug report possible, or does it only 
show "ICE: bus error" and you can guess the reason but you don't know 
where to look?
