I apologize that no one ever responded to your July and early October emails.  I
did not realize that the Debian GCC maintainers were expecting me to keep on top
of this bug.  I will manage it myself now.

Answers to your questions:

As far as I can tell, NBIO does seem to compile with the latest gcj, at least
the version in Debian unstable (3.3.2).  I was just now able to build the
libnbio2-java package on my Debian unstable box, and it is up-to-date on all
Debian architectures other than mips, mipsel and hppa (which do not yet have the
correct version of gcj).  

The test case referenced along with the Debian bug report still fails in roughly
the same way that it did in December 2002, although the resulting stack trace
differs.

The upstream NBIO release can be downloaded from 

   http://sourceforge.net/projects/seda

Or, if you prefer, you can get the Debian source package off one of the Debian
mirrors or from my personal APT repository:

   http://cedar-solutions.com/ftp/

The Debian pacakge uses a custom shell script to build the package, since it's
rather difficult to update the NBIO Makefiles in place.  I have attached that
shell script.  

I don't think it matters that NIO has now been rolled into libjava, since NBIO
and NIO are not quite the same thing, and there are certainly users who will
continue to use NIO (especially Java 1.3 users).

What other information can I get for you?
