You should not need to set your PATH before running ./configure,
but that does not seem to have anything to do with the error
you are getting.

No, that should have worked. Could you run `ls -la /c/jdk1.3.1_07/lib/jvm.lib`
just to make sure that the lib file is there and then run `nm /c/jdk1.3.1_07/lib/jvm.lib | grep JNI_`
and post the results? Something is going wrong while linking, but I am not sure what
it could be. The jni.h header is getting read correctly, since it is searching for the
dll import symbol '_imp__JNI_GetCreatedJavaVMs@12', the problem is that this
symbol does not seem to be found in the lib file.
