I saw it later on the gcc list, not this one.

I tried this on x86.  Here is fails with gij, but works when compiling
to native from either .class or .java.  It also works with the JDK
interpreter.  Finally, it fails with gij when compiled with the JDK
compiler.  So I think it must be in the libgcj interpreter and not
with `gcj -C'.
