I see you read my reply to Vinod, directly or indirectly, and set the
environment variables appropriately.  However java-sablevm (the java
script) ignores the BOOTCLASSPATH variable, so you have to add the
-Xbootclasspath:$BOOTCLASSPATH option to your invocation of java, before
the class name.  That is:

java -Xbootclasspath:$BOOTCLASSPATH HelloWorldText

You can also hack the java-sablevm script with the attached diff.  Then
the environment setting should work.
