The problem was that xalan-j2-serializer.jar link pointed to the same
jar as the xalan-j2.jar link. Then gcj wasnt able to load an interface
of some class that is normally located in xalan-j2-serializer.jar.
I had a similar error with JDK 6 before I fixed that.

That is surely a situation that should not happen but can happen.
The user visible error message was a bit misleaded as the
ClassNotFoundException was about the class in xalan-j2.jar and not the
missing interface (normally loaded from xalan-j2-serializer.jar).
Perhaps the error message for this can be optimized - as known as "show
the really missing class/interface".


Cheers.
