Correct. This works after I downloaded Sun's jdk-6u1-linux-i586-rpm.bin.

Yes. I found out, that the jni.h (version 1.4) of the libgcj-devel-3.3.4-11
RPM (from Suse 9.1) is included instead of the jni.h from Sun's jdk-6u1.
Although this is a problem of my outdated distribution: do you happen to
have a quick suggestion (maybe a configure option?) how I make gcc use the
newer jni.h? But probably I have to gcc-4.1.

Thank you for your replies.

Michael.
