T2K needed in Linux, also?

[Ted Neward]

I slipped in the patch below, copied t2k.lib to the
BinaryPlugs\jdk1.7.0\libfiles directory, did "make" in make/sun/font, and it
appears to work. I'm doing a "make clean" / "make debug_build" now to see if
it'll run from start to finish, just to verify everything. Will post results
when that's done, which may take a few days.... ;-)

BTW, Kelly (and Phil), major kudos to you guys, both for putting up with my
idiot questions, and for streamlining the build process significantly. I may
complain about the process and critique the decisions made, but please don't
ever take that to imply criticism of you guys or your work.
