State-Changed-Why:
    I don't think this is really a bug.
    I agree it is a bit confusing, but it is what we
    decided to do.
    
    `-d' (aka --output-class-dir) only affects the placement
    of .class files.  It only has any effect when you are
    using gcj to generate .class files.  In this mode gcj
    tries to follow the lead of `javac' (our goal -- which
    at present we aren't very close to, is to have `gcj -C'
    work like `javac').
    
    When compiling to object code, gcj works more like other
    gcc front ends.  So for instance the .o file is placed
    where the `-o' option says -- and in the absence of `-o'
    it is named after the source file and put into `.'.
