Also, a question here.  Seeing as I've gotten a basic Java class to be
called succesfully from my XUL JavaScript, would these possible
classloading issues be resolved by exposing a few functions in a java
class of my creation and having this java class itself call the nutch
functionality?  Or is this pretty much the same thing?
