That should only happen if you're trying to link with a shared
library. Don't do that, then.

I've done it, a long time ago.
Firstly, you'll need to build a special version of libgcj targeted at
eCos. This is necessary because large parts of libgcj are
OS-dependent.
I warn you now: this is going to be difficult. Apart from anything
else, gcj has never been ported to eCos threads. To get this to work
will require serious toolchain expertise and a lot of time.
Also, libgcj is big, much bigger than eCos. You'll need a target with
lots of memory.
