We enhanced call_scilab for javasci v2, we added much more checks and
controls.

The right way to start Scilab engine is:
#ifdef _MSC_VER
 if ( StartScilab(NULL,NULL,NULL) == FALSE )
#else
 if ( StartScilab(getenv("SCI"),NULL,NULL) == FALSE )
#endif
  {
   fprintf(stderr,"Error while calling StartScilab\n");
   return -1;
  }
