[plt-scheme] Embedding MzScheme in Java

OK, I'll keep that in mind.

Thanks so much for doing that Matthew.  Actually I've run MzScheme in
Windows apps quite a lot, starting from version 203, and I've also
plugged lots of dlls into MzScheme, never with any problem (nor under
Linux).  MzScheme is one of the best kept "secrets" on the planet, BTW -
really great stuff, and I could never thank you and your colleagues
enough for it.

Anyway, yes, it's looking like my immediate problem has to do with the
JVM environment.  Apparently I'm missing something myself, and will
have to dig deeper.  Just as a sanity check: to your knowledge, has
anyone ever successfully embedded MzScheme in Sun's HotSpot JVM
environment?  Or any Java environment for that matter?

I've tried both, with the same result.  To be sure, I just now tried
again with the dlls in the mz-352-bin-i386-win32 distribution ...
same problem.
