Once my file was taken into account, the linking part failed with a 
"multiple definitions" warning, which seemed logical. I fixed this with 
the "--allow-multiple-definition" ld flag.
The behavior seems OK now: my custom class is properly linked, and seems 
to have replaced its libgcj counterpart with respect to file size.
Thanks for the hint,
Olivier Parisy.
