Is this an amd64 machine with a 32-bit Debian version installed and
64-bit kernel running? If thats the case install the linux32 package
and run it.

The problem is that some parts of gcj are installed in
/usr/lib/gcc/i486-linux-gnu/4.1 (on my machine). On amd64 this dir is
named differently. gcj always uses what

  dpkg-architecture -qDEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE

returns. When using the linux32 wrapper on an amd64 machine you will get
"i486-linux-gnu"


Cheers,
