If they are not part of the no-name default package then you need to
invoke gcj at the "root of your package" hierarchy. Otherwise gcj will
not know where to look for a class. So if you have two classes A and B
in package p. Then you want to tell gcj to look for classes and source
files from the parent directory of p.

If we have for example the following files (class A and B part of
package p, inside myproject):
/home/mark/src/myproject/p/A.java
/home/mark/src/myproject/p/B.java

Then you would invoke gcj from /home/mark/src/myproject as gcj -c
p/A.java and gcj -c p/B.java

Hope that helps,

Mark
