Advice on compiling GCJ for ARM

I've been trying off and on for a week to build a GCJ compiler for webOS, a Linux variant on ARM, with very little success. On the bright side I've started to learn more about how the GCC build system works. :) My host machine is Mac OSX 10.6.4, Snow Leopard. I've been able to get GCJ for Mac OSX (darwin) working (though with a few issues), but I can't the cross compiler to even finish compiling.
So my first question is really just a request for advice: what version of GCC should I start with? Which one is likely to give me the most success? Recent 4.5 builds?
Second, should I be using glibc or newlib?
Thanks for any help. If there's already some prebuilt GCJ for ARM binaries I'm willing to try those as well.
Thanks!
