Mateusz,

My (vague) understanding was that the Java bindings are not using
libtool in the conventional fashion and that this causes some problems.
Perhaps I am wrong.

Earlier I suggested that support for Java on buildbot was low priority,
which I still consider to be the case.  But I would like you to help
to ensure that Java building works smoothly on Linux and win32 platforms
if you can.

Best regards,
