Build error with javac Main not being found when building java.transaction module on Mac OS X

[Mani Sarkar]

@Martijn - as Magnus suggests, I would do the same, zap all the forests
then clone and run get_source.sh.

I have had similar instances in the past and the above helped although the
cause of the problem may sometimes elude us.

Cheers,
Mani
