Is it prc-0.5.0 or the egcs based toolchain? The set of patches for
latter would be necessary in order to get gcj (the egcs patches are
based on 2.95.2) and some of the fixes absolutely necessary to have
libgcj running (like an improved C++ runtime support.)

You can configure libgcj not to use a garbage collector. In the
future, it would probably easier to use the memory management API
defined by libcj to craft a GC using the specificities of the PalmOS
memory management (handles, etc...)
