 From the configure output it seems as if you have a fake libjvm.so,  
because there are no library paths and yet it compiles. Please make  
sure that the correct java, javac etc. are on your PATH before you  
compile the package. Also make sure that your Java is properly  
installed (preferably from a Debian package). If that doesn't help,  
please send me your config.log.

Cheers,
Simon
