For a reason I don't know, the source tarballs I release are not compatible 
with gcj 4.x. To compile PyLucene with gcj 4.2, you must start from the svn 
sources and use a sane (Sun, Apple, Blackdown) JDK 1.4 or 1.5 with ant. You 
cannot use gcj to compile the .java sources, there are too many bugs with 
that.

For an example (on Ubuntu 64), see: 
http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/pylucene-dev/2006-November/001404.html

Once you get that working, you're still not done if you want to experiment 
with adding threads after the fact. You then need to create a wrapper for 
JvAttachCurrentThread() and call it from your python code.

For an example on how to wrap a simple C/C++ function, see _PyLucene.cpp's 
dumpRefs() function.
