Hi, 

Since I came across this searching for my issue I will post the solutions I
found to work:

gcj was not linking to main, receiving error:

/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/4.3.4/../../../libcygwin.a(libcmain.o):

I found two solutions, one online and one in the gcj man page:

gcj --main=HelloWorldApp HelloWorldApp.java

gcj -lgij HelloWorldApp.java

both of these options correctly linked the library needed for main.

enjoy!

Elijah
