Hmm - but the result of the IRC-discussion was to use (for Mac)
/usr/libexec/java_home where available (10.5 and newer), and the
hardcoded fallbackpath of either
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/CurrentJDK/Home
or /Library/Java/Home (which in the end points to the
/System/Library..... one.

wasn't it?

I quit IRC early, so have to read some of the backlog, but my
impression was that this was the way to go..
