Did you check /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/gcc4.README(*), in the section "Java
users need an additional download to compile source to bytecode"? You need
ecj.jar, which isn't yet part of the distro. There's a script provided to
help you download it: try ". /usr/sbin/download_ecj.sh", if you haven't
already. (NB: the "." - it means the same as the "source" builtin - is
required, because the script lost its execute perms owing to a packaging error.)
[ Note that you may still run into bugs, which I'd like to hear about. gcj-4
is still work in progress. I hope 4.5.0 to be better. ]
cheers,
