Actually, with 4.1.1 linking partially static works like a charm when
having built gcc with --disable-shared:
 # gcj --main=test test.java
does the trick:
 # ldd a.out
 libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libm.so.6 (0xb7fc4000)
 libpthread.so.0 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libpthread.so.0
(0xb7fb3000)
 libdl.so.2 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libdl.so.2 (0xb7fb0000)
 libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (0xb7e7b000)
 /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7fea000)
However, I am trying to build a completely statically linked binary. I'm
not even new to this kind of problem - I'm building the project in
question statically and more or less successfully since GCC 3.4.0 (using
a glibc built with --enable-static-nss). 
That's why I am very surprised to fail miserably with 4.1.1 and cannot
believe it is just broken. I assume, 4.1.1 must have introduced some new
trap I fell into.
Best regards,
Tom
