Speaking as the person who wrote most of the MIPS/Linux support in 
GCJ/libgcj,  I am always interested when I hear of people trying to use 
it.  Although I cannot be of much use solving Crosstool issues (As I 
have never used it), I would recommend that any java/GCJ specific issues 
be directed to  java@gcc.gnu.org.

I would note that support on the o32 ABI in GCJ is currently (in the 4.2 
pre-release branch) as complete as for any other platform.  Support for 
the MIPS 64 bit ABI's is minimal, but I would be willing to give 
pointers to anyone that has 64bit hardware that wants to improve the GCJ 
port.
