libgcj.dll = 0 bytes! Wow! Thanks Micro$hit/Window$

Try:
1) Update bunutils to CVs
2) Build ld with larger stack reserve (say 32MB) 
You could also try rename orig libgcj.a to libgcj.orig.a and then just link in
that with --whole-archive flag when building dll without xtracting to object
components
