OK, rewrite that to

*lib: %{s-bc-abi:} -lgcj  -lm   -lpthread -lrt    -ldl %(libgcc) %(liborig)

Now, I'm very confused.  I don't know why you are getting all this
stuff in Windows.  It shouldn't be there.  The logic (in configure.host)
that controls this is:

case "${host}" in
  *linux*|*-kfreebsd*-gnu)
    use_libgcj_bc=yes
  ;;
  *)
    use_libgcj_bc=no
  ;;
esac    

Without use_libgcj_bc set to "yes" you should get the simple *lib line
above.  There should be no references to -lgcj_bc.

So, I don't know where your strage Windows *lib line came from.

Andrew.
