LD_LIBRARY_PATH works for me.
It ought to work for you too.
 creche. gcj --main=HelloWorld -o HelloWorld HelloWorld.java
 creche. ./HelloWorld
 ./HelloWorld: error in loading shared libraries
 libgcj.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
 creche. LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/x1/egcs/install/lib ./HelloWorld
 Hello World!
(I configured both packages with --prefix=/x1/egcs/install)
Otherwise you can try use -rpath when you compile:
 creche. gcj --main=HelloWorld -o HelloWorld HelloWorld.java -Wl,-rpath,/x1/egcs/install/lib
 creche. ./HelloWorld
 Hello World!
Or you can add /usr/local/lib to your ld.so cache using ldconfig.
Or you can link statically, though this doesn't always work.
