Hi!

If I create a file named for example 'aaa' with only a
newline ('echo. > aaa') and run gcj on it as follows:

gcj aaa -Xassembler --help

it crashes with a segmentation fault:

Die Anweisung in "0x77f645cc" verweist auf Speicher in
"0x6c626d65". Der Vorgang "written" konnte nicht auf
dem Speicher durchgeführt werden.

(The command at "0x77f645cc" couldn't write to memory
in "0x6c626d65").

Output of ld -v:
GNU ld version 2.15.90 20040222

    Hi,

    I can't reproduce this. What program is segfaulting? I
    assumed it was ld because without a suffix on the file and no -
    xlang switch, gcc just passes it on to ld.

    gcj.exe is segfaulting. Remember i'm calling gcj -Xassembler
    --help. If i use gcc -Xassembler --help, it doesn't generate a
    segfault. It also doesn't generate one if I use Mohan's 3.5 build
    (http://www.thisiscool.com/gcc_mingw.htm, gcc version 3.5.0
    20040629 (experimental)). So this might be already fixed?

    What does this command show
    gcj nul.java -Xassembler --help -v

    gcj nul.java -Xassembler --help -v
    crashes without any output, trying to write to memory at 0.
    Same when I add spaces around nul.java.
    Same when I use a file named 'aaa'.
