------- Comment #4 from jlpoole at pon dot net 2010-01-03 18:30 ------- I think I found the problem:
the compiler is using an incorrect path, e.g. "/usr/share/java", to find the ecj.jar file and the other jar files, libgcj-4.5.0.jar libgcj-tools-4.5.0.jar, when it should have used "/usr/local/gcj/usr/share/java". See line 172 in the attachment gcj_fails-looking_for_ecj_in_wrong_path.txt Recall, I had installed using the DESTDIR parameter: make DESTDIR=/usr/local/gcj install in order not to trash my Gentoo GCC built for my ARMv5t platform. My work-around was to copy the three jar files under the /usr/local/gcj/usr/share/java directory (where make install had placed them) to /usr/share/java. My work-around run is attached (gcj_ecj_moved.txt) to this bug. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42409
