Fixed issue with java headers on OSX about tinyos-main HOT 5 CLOSED

Can you please include a description of the problem? This is mostly for bookkeeping and records. URLs to patches isn't a great way to track and maintain a codebase. Thanks!

Sure, the problem is described in the comments.
The code in tos-locate-jre had hardcoded path
and the comments suggested that this should be
fixed eventually.

I have found that on the system which I got it's
not working becuase the symlinks are broken.
It is probably a buggy script from Apple that
is trying to symlink to the most current java
but it is somewhat broken the symlinks to 'jni.h'
and other headers.
I also fixed the spelling of proper JNI install
path and found that uname -r returns 10.6.0
instead of 10.6.6 (it is not certain whether
uname -r will return last zero for any OSX
release in the future) and therefore used an
Apple specific sw_vers command with a bit of
awk and sed.
The real headers turn out to be under /Developer/.

Still, in fact the JNI is being installed into
the --prefix= rather then the JNI path, btw.

Pardon, I sent two emails by accedent, but
forgot to attach the patch itself.
This was output from git, so I am not sure
about this two lines:

--- a/tools/tinyos/misc/tos-locate-jre
+++ b/tools/tinyos/misc/tos-locate-jre
