Rex thought there was some incompatability with the new version that he 
couldn't work out before.  It would be nice to get moved over to jogamp 
as it seems alive.  But for now please do not check that into trunk.  
We'll need to investigate whether it just works or needs Aviatrix3D changes.

the state of Java native libraries is sad and likely going downhill.  
Best I can tell there is no Oracle support for media libraries.  I 
suspect that for all native library projects we want to use we'll have 
to be heavily involved to keep them working for us.

I checked in what I view as the authoritative version of jogl fore Xj3D 
into the natives directory.  I do not have version of JOAL or odejava I 
consider authortitative.
