OK, rewrite that to
*lib: %{s-bc-abi:} -lgcj -lm -lpthread -lrt -ldl %(libgcc) %(liborig)
Now, I'm very confused. I don't know why you are getting all this
stuff in Windows. It shouldn't be there. The logic (in configure.host)
that controls this is:
case "${host}" in
 *linux*|*-kfreebsd*-gnu)
 use_libgcj_bc=yes
 ;;
 *)
 use_libgcj_bc=no
 ;;
esac 
Without use_libgcj_bc set to "yes" you should get the simple *lib line
above. There should be no references to -lgcj_bc.
So, I don't know where your strage Windows *lib line came from.
Andrew.
