JAVA VM problem with scilab ?

On two recent builds (including yesterday's) of scilab 5.3.0 from the
git source repo, I'm seeing the following output when scilab is started as
`SCIVERBOSE=1 scilab'

=>scilab
SCILABBIN : scilab-bin

SCILAB_MODE : gui
OS : Linux
MODEL : x86_64

Have not been able to find any Java VM on this computer. Some features may be broken.
JAVA_HOME : /usr/lib/jvm/java/

DOCBOOK : /usr/share/sgml/docbook/xsl-stylesheets-1.75.2/

In particular, the "Have not been able to find ..." line seems to
indiciate that it's not finding the JAVA VM. This message was not there
in my initial build of 5.3.0 back in mid-December when it first came
out.

The graphics demos I tested seem to run fine.  Not sure if this is a bug
or something wrong on my end.  Just above the line in question, it says
it has found Java so I'm confused.

`java -version' returns:

=>java -version
java version "1.6.0_23"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_23-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 19.0-b09, mixed mode)
