Static build failing to load classes

["Scott Gilbertson" <scottg at mantatest dot com>]

I'm trying to do a static build with today's gcj code.  With a trivial java
program,
it crashes, apparently unable to load a class I'm reasonably sure is
included
in the binary.  Is this  a known problem?

My compile command:
/var/local/gcc/tip_20051115/bin/gcj -static --main=Hello -g -o Hello.bin
Hello.java

My GCJ and linux:
  gcj (GCC) 4.1.0 20051116 (experimental)
   (revision 107090 from SVN, checked out 2005-11-16)
  Linux version 2.6.8.1-10mdk

Here's the trivial source I'm trying to run with the interpreter.  It works
OK when compiled to a dynamic executable, but not with a static build.
  public class Hello
  {
    public static void main (String[] args)
    {
      System.out.println("hello");
    }
  }


>From the backtrace below, it seems like java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass
can't find
gnu.java.locale.LocaleInformation.class.  I did "nm --defined-only Hello.bin
| grep LocaleInformation$"
and got:
  08490f54 d _catch_classes_gnu.java.locale.LocaleInformation
  08490f40 d _MT_gnu_java_locale_LocaleInformation
I think that means the gnu.java.locale.LocaleInformation class is included
in the binary, and therefore should have been loaded by the class loader.

Here's the backtrace for Hello.bin.
