I tried inserting some printfs to initProperties and it seems that it
doesn't even reach that function. Similar results in debugger as well.

Then I tried adding a debug call to static block of System.java. Even that
doesn't work:

/wrk/ipaq/u/jko/test/bin/java -cp test.jar hello
Internal error: caught an unexpected exception.
Please check your CLASSPATH and your installation.

Is JNI broken on armv5b?
