It certainly looks that way.

I don't think that's really the problem, since mx4j doesn't install in
any extensions directory.  It probably should for gcj at least, since
it's included in Sun's rt.jar.

But it seems that gcj should have it's own extension directory. 

jmx is also set up to use "alternatives".  

I don't know what the right answer is.  Suggestions?
