hanks to Andrew, I was able to track down the issue to a problem with
the javac wrapper as distribute in the debian linux distribution.
Which basically provide a javac Sun-like cmd line, and forward args to
gcj. Namely:

...
} elsif ($arg eq '-classpath' or $arg eq '--classpath' or $arg eq '--cp') {
$appendNextArg = '--classpath=';
...

Thus -cp was never taken into account.
