This is not about "supporting" RHEL 3; we do not "officially support"
any particular Linux distro. But you do need a valid C++ compiler with a
complete implementation of C++98 to compile JavaHL for 1.9.

Yes, I think we'll have to update that minimum requirement, too. Java
1.5 has also been quite dead for a while. Although in this case,
replacing .isEmpty() with .equals("") should be fine.
