Here's what I think is happening.

When you type java or javac at the command line, you are actually running
KAFFE's java.  The java executable in /usr/bin does not belong to JDK.
Try running jdk's java (or javac) using an absolute pathname and see what
happens.  (ie something like /usr/local/jdk-1.3/java assuming jdk-1.3 is 
in /usr/local). If that works, just delete the java and javac executables
in /usr/bin and make sym links to jdk's  (ie ln -s /usr/local/jdk-1.3/java
/usr/bin/java and ln -s /usr/local/jdk-1.3/javac /usr/bin/javac).  

When I installed jdk-1.3.rpm (*after* I removed jdk-1.0.2 and both of
the KAFFE packages), I never had to set any variables.  I just typed javac
foo.java and away I went.

Let us know how it goes.

Good Luck!!
