I have found the cause of this.  It's a gcc bug:
/usr/lib/gcc/armv5tel-redhat-linux-gnueabi/4.4.5/libgcc_s.so should be
a linker script that contains

/* GNU ld script
   Use the shared library, but some functions are only in
   the static library.  */
GROUP ( libgcc_s.so.1 libgcc.a )

but it's a symbolic link to /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 .  This causes all
gcj packages to fail to link.

I don't know why this has happened.  I am building the gcc package
to try to discover what went wrong.

Andrew.
