I was hoping to indicate which version of libglom is being wrapped by
the version number in the java-libglom release. But I think you have a
point about the release not being 100% ready. I wouldn't call the
current state of java-libglom unstable, but the chances of having all
of the wrinkles ironed out the first time I roll out the tarball are
pretty low. I'll use 1.17.x, thanks.

I just need to fix this issue properly. Right now I'm just guessing
what the junit jar are called when I should be using the
ax_check_junit.m4 macro from the autoconf archive. I'll fix that
tomorrow and make the release.

Thanks, Ben
