Ok, feel free to use it. Actually I assume that there are a couple of
people out there more interested in the recent gcj/gcc build than the
GUI-frontend.
I can upload the removed utilities (bin/*: gcc, gij, ...) if you need
them. I will do that (and list myself in the binaries section on
gcc.gnu.org) in a next release anyway... Just removed them to make the
download smaller.

I think the source of the problem is described here in the first question:
http://javacompiler.mtsystems.ch/frame_faq.html
Do you strip the dll (gcj -s)?
You might try upx as well (upx.sf.net). With it, I would expect the 29mb
dll to shrink to ~10mb...
