Ok so here is the output of my hello.exe

G:\2005-extraextra>hello
Now starting to LOG

G:\2005-extraextra>

I compiled it with
gcj -s --main=Hello -o Hello.exe src/Hello.java
My gcj version is 3.4.0 20040316.
As stated in my other Post "Wrestling with gcj 4.0 mingw win32"
I can not compile with gcj 4.0 I get the same compile error

c:/gcc/thisiscool-gcc/gcc-4.0/bin/../lib/gcc/i686-pc-mingw32/4.0.0/../../../../i

Both versions are the ones from http://www.thisiscool.com/gcc_mingw.htm
Because the version from the Mingw website itself never compiled 
something successfully.

I'd love to use GDB but I'm not sure that it is included with the GCJ 
from thisiscool.com. Is there an easy to install GDB binary available 
somewhere ? I'm really sorry for these stupid questions but I'm kind of 
lost in this multitude of versions and different GCC packages and such.
