Since most of our Java code should by now load native libraries through 
com.sun.star.lib.util.NativeLibraryLoader, a grep for 
"NativeLibraryLoader" across all *.java files in the CVS should reveal 
most, if not all, affected libraries:

   hsqldb2
   java_uno
   jpipe
   officebean

Also, there is

   juh

which is loaded by System.loadLibrary instead (for whatever reason).

Hope this helps,
