BigInteger build problem - again

I am building the latest CVS libgcj using gcc-2.95.2 with Bryce's
latest patch (2000-04-18). However, I get the following error 
while compiling libgcj:

Premature end of .class file /home/cs/mdw/disks/mm33/egcs-jaguar/build/libgcj-cvs/i686-pc-linux-gnu/libjava/java/math/BigInteger.class.
java/math/BigInteger.java: In class `java.math.BigInteger':
java/math/BigInteger.java: In method `isNegative()':
java/math/BigInteger.java:282: internal error - SP mismatch
Premature end of .class file /home/cs/mdw/disks/mm33/egcs-jaguar/build/libgcj-cvs/i686-pc-linux-gnu/libjava/java/math/BigInteger.class.

This problem has come up several times on the list:

http://sourceware.cygnus.com/ml/java-discuss/2000-q1/msg00228.html

Earlier it was written off as "you can't use the latest libgcj with 
gcc-2.95.2". But this exactly what Bryce's patch is supposed to support.

Any ideas?

Matt
