In FreeBSD there is a similar error because the mozilla port is compiled
with the system compiler gcc 3.x but the java binary is compiled with
gcc 2.9.x.

The latest java 1.4.x binary packages from Sun include one plugin version
which is compiled with gcc 3.x and using that one gets rid of the error.

Dunno if this is the same, though.
