The following .emacs file reproduces the problem for me:
---------------------------- .emacs -------------------------
(custom-set-variables
'(jde-build-function (quote (jde-ant-build))))
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name
"~/elisp/jde-2.2.8beta4/lisp"))
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "~/elisp/semantic-1.4beta8"))
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "~/elisp/eieio-0.16"))
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "~/elisp/elib-1.0"))
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "~/elisp/speedbar-0.14beta1"))
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "~/elisp/ecb-1.41"))
(require 'jde)
