But it only contains the following:

INCLUDES=['/usr/java/jdk-1.6/include', '/usr/java/jdk-1.6/include/linux']
CFLAGS=['-fno-strict-aliasing']
LFLAGS=['-L/usr/java/jdk-1.6/jre/lib/i386', '-ljava', '-Wl,-rpath=/usr/java/jdk-1.6/jre/lib/i386:/usr/java/jdk-1.6/jre/lib/i386/client']

So there's no pointer that an extension can use to access libjcc.so.
The "-rpath" path needs to be longer.  Or, you could add the location
of libjcc.so dynamically to it when you stub a jar file with JCC.
