You might run out of RAM/Swap. GCJ 4.3 needs a lot more compared to GCJ 
4.2. I can compile swt without problems.
What operating system do you have?
How much Ram?
How do you compile the jar? The whole or only needed references?

Would be nice to know the result with optimization.

AutoCompiler actually only executes "JavaNativeCompiler -compile 
theFile.jnc" while keeping the console open. So, not really surprising :-)

Very strange! The GUI frontend calls "gcj" and waits until it returns. 
So there really ought to be something... Unless you run out of memory of 
course. Then the behavior is unspecified I guess.
