>Description:
Hello,
	I have this silly problem ... AFAIK it is a bug :(

adam@one:HelloApp $ cat HelloWorldApp.java 
  class HelloWorldApp {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
      System.out.println("Hello World!"); }
  }

1) I can compile bytecode of it using gcj and it will run
    fine under Sun's 'java' interpreter.

adam@one:HelloApp $ gcj -C HelloWorldApp.java 
adam@one:HelloApp $ java -version
java version "1.2.1"
Solaris VM (build Solaris_JDK_1.2.1_03, native threads, sunwjit)
adam@one:HelloApp $ java  HelloWorldApp  
Hello World!

2) However, when I try to make native binary, it will dump  
   core.

gcj -g --main=HelloWorldApp -o HelloWorldApp1 HelloWorldApp.java -R/homes/adam/usr/lib -L/homes/adam/usr/include

adam@one:HelloApp $ ./HelloWorldApp1
