I don't know what JAVA_HOME has to do with this. JCC doesn't use it in any 
way. It's probably again the same problem as last time where there are gcj
header files that get picked up before the desired ones.

Last time, it turned out that there were some classes and headers such as 
java/lang/String.h that were not generated by JCC, yet needed, so gcc was 
picking up the gcj header file instead.

Are you sure that you're running the very latest of JCC that includes the 
fixes we made for these problems ?
