It means the libgcj runtime wasn't built when you compiled 3.0.3.  Even
though you have gcj, it is useless without the runtime component.

Libgcj isn't supported on Cygwin as of GCC 3.0.3, so it is disabled by
default.  (You could override the default with --enable-libgcj, but expect
errors if you do.)
