Take a look on your system32/ ;)...

As I said before this issue has been addressed for gvSIG-2.0, so we can't
afford working on a solution for gvSIG 1.9 unless there are funds or more
resources.  Are you open to collaborate with us by coding a solution or by
giving funds for this specific question?

Anyway, how would you explain a common user how to remove the previous

gvSIG is the only application that copies native libs in JRE directory :P.
Usually applications writes their native stuff in system 32.  There is a
thread in the spanish list, a couple of days ago, where my mate Maria Ten
writes about this topic.

Cheers.
