You are compiling only the RpcServer class to object code with this
example.  The linker fails because it does not find compiled objects for
the other needed classes.

It may be easier to compile .java->.o one file at a time, and link
them all together as a file step, e.g.:

gcj -c Class1.java
gcj -c Class2.java
gcj -c Class3.java
gcj --main=example.Main Class1.o Class2.o Class3.o -o Program

I'm not sure what's going wrong here.

I know others have tried XML-RPC with gcj and reported success.  Try
searching the gcj archives.
