Yes, that is the only error given by "make test".  And, I get:

debian[~]$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: i486-linux-gnu
Configured with: ../src/configure -v
--enable-languages=c,c++,fortran,objc,obj-c++,treelang --prefix=/usr

Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-21)

But, so far, I haven't had any problems while running my old stuff...

OK, I had installed (manually) java 1.5 from Sun.  But, although I
installed the plugins manually, the system did not see the binaries.
It used gij.  It took me a while to find that out.  What fixed it was
installing java with APT and telling the system to use it.

  $ sudo apt-get install sun-java5-bin sun-java5-doc \
    sun-java5-fonts sun-java5-jre sun-java5-plugin

  $ sudo update-alternatives --config java

  (Choose "java", not "gij??".)

Now it works!  Thanks for your help!

I didn't try that since Ted's suggestion worked for me!

Does the new version of jsMath come with those??  I am just surprised
that I did not have to do that with my office computer running Fedora
Core 6.  In fact, now that I've checked it, it seems that my office
computer doesn't even have jsMath installed at all (except what comes
with Sage).  I am bit puzzled, but it's working for me...


Thanks Michael and Ted for your help!
