It seems that configure is defaulting to using gcj to compile and for some reason, this is failing. From your output, it seems like gcj is trying to compile more than just the Test.java file and is actually trying to compile a lot of the GNU Classpath sourcecode during the configure process! The thing to try first is to build outside the source directory: cd .. mkdir classpath-build cd classpath-build CFLAGS="-O2 -mips32 -msoft-float" ../classpath-0.98/configure --prefix=/opt/classpath --build=mipsel-softfloat-linux-gnu --host=mipsel-softfloat-linux-gnu --target=mipsel-softfloat-linux-gnu --disable-gconf-peer --disable-gtk-peer --disable-plugin --enable-gmp --enable-regen-headers --enable-static --enable-shared --disable-rpath --with-gnu-ld If this works, let us know; it may be that there is a bug with using gcj for in-tree compiles. There was a similar issue for older versions of javac. More generally, the fact that gcj is being used as the compiler implies that it has already failed to find either ecj or javac. You can explicitly set the compiler to use by setting the JAVAC environment variable in the same way you set CFLAGS. Note that Classpath has the option to just compile the native code. You can then build the Java code on any box (you'll probably find this easier on an x86 box for example). Check the --with-glibj option. As you're on Gentoo, it may be worth checking out the GNU Classpath and CACAO ebuilds in the java-overlay (available via layman). We'd appreciate the testing on mips!
