OpenJDK linking error

[Peng Du]

Hi, Kelly

After a bit of messing with OpenJDK, the compilation finally succeeded,
though I don't fully understand all the hows and whys? 

Here are what I've done: I kept only one libstdc++ and uninstalled the
other versions. Also, I installed both the devel and static-devel
packages of libstdc++. 

Then, some libraries are missing, like libXtst, libx11, and etc.
Installed the devel version of them. Then, the "java" from the local
bootstrap OpenJDK threw a Segmentation Fault. As a resort, I switched to
the Sun JDK and after long time of compiling, everything worked
perfectly. 

My thanks should be given to you, Andrew, and Weijun. Thank you all for
your kind help! 

Thanks

Peng
