Build failure in JObjC

[Scott Kovatch]

Well, I'm now building again, but I'm still confused as to why it succeeded. I was using 'remake' which is based on gnumake 3.8.2, but when I went back to make it built successfully. I also made sure 1.6.0_30 was my Java 6 JDK. I had been building with both of those tools for a while without any problems.

The problem was that there was nothing in the stable_bridge_metadata folder -- the metadata generation phase didn't happen. Switching to 10.7.3 might have done that because the frameworks were updated, but it was a clean build, too.

If I see it again I'll file a bug.
