The documentation says that you can't specify multiple input files when
using --resource (or -C).  You'll need to compile those resource files
into multiple .o files.  Even then, it's not clear what you're trying to
do.  

This command...

$ gcj -c --resource RESOURCENAME FILENAME -o OBJECTNAME

...will compile FILENAME into OBJECTNAME.   The contents of FILENAME
will be available at runtime by reading from the URL 
core:/RESOURCENAME.  We put core:/ automatically at the end of the
classpath, so methods like ResourceBundle.getBundle(RESOURCENAME) will
magically work.
