I'm not expert to write patch... but this is what I do as Ben suggest
and from http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/java/2006-11/msg00042.html


#create a tmp directory and go there
mkdir -p tmp
cd tmp

#extract by using ar command all files from your libgcj.a file.
ar -x /c/MinGWalfa/lib/gcc/mingw32/4.3.0/libgcj.a

#search, arrange and build togheter all properties files...
find . -name "*.o" |fgrep properties|xargs ar rvcs libgcj_properties.a
ranlib libgcj_properties.a

#move result in lib directory or in your corresponding -L<path> directory
mv libgcj_properties.a ..

#remove the tmp directory..
rm -rf tmp

then compile all with the new line command:
gcj -Wl,--whole-archive -lgcj_properties \ 
-Wl,--no-whole-archive-static-libgcj \
 --main=snippetCalendar -o snippetCalendar.exe \ 
snippetCalendar.java -L.

#run the results:

$ snippetCalendar.exe
