After appying that patch:

- With no classpath, I now get a sensible error,

     java.util.MissingResourceException: can't load bundle

- With the raw files in the classpath the program runs properly.

However,

- With the jar in the classpath, or when run under gdb I also get

     java.util.MissingResourceException: can't load bundle

So,

1) Why can't it load the resource from the jar?

2) Why does it run differently under gdb?  

I've queried the CLASSPATH environment variable in gdb, and it returns the
proper value:	

     (gdb) show envir CLASSPATH
     CLASSPATH = /home/warnes/java/

so that doesn't seem to be the problem.
