confirmed with trunk 20080116

$ java FirstSample
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: FirstSample
   at gnu.java.lang.MainThread.run(libgcj.so.70)
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: FirstSample not found in
gnu.gcj.runtime.SystemClassLoader{urls=[file:./],
parent=gnu.gcj.runtime.ExtensionClassLoader{urls=[], parent=null}}

even though javac FirstSample.java worked flawlessly and the class was
definitely there. Even more so, the Sun VM was able to run the FirstSample
class.

Some investigations showed that the problem seems to be caused by a umlaut
being
contained in the directory name; if one copies the files to, e.g., /tmp/ things
work fine.
