I just did some digging, and incidentally, if you are using OpenJDK,
the necessary JAR file is actually rt.jar, not plugin.jar - go figure!
 I'm running Fedora 10, and it's located in
/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk.x86_64/jre/lib/rt.jar (however, I
build against Sun's JDK, installed in /usr/java/...

Bottom line, if you have a local copy of plugin.jar, run with it --
it'll let you compile :)
