Its OK, I found it.  Its in /usr/lib/libqtjavasupport.so, and I cheated (shows
my mainframe background I am afraid), I used KHexEdit to patch it and
my code now works.  So the fix is good!  Thanks Richard.

Whats the plan when it comes to sorting the 3.3.1 java bindings?  I ask so
that I have an excuse to badger the Debian packager to release a 3.3
version at all, and in particular to get this fix (and the other bits that
have been fixed in juic) into the shipped version.
