What it means is that the headers provided by JDK are not installed
in some standard location, so the compiler cannot find them automatically.
The configure script expects them in $JAVA_HOME/include. If this is not
the case, then you'll have to fix your system, or let the compiler know about
the non standard location, usually by using some well-known environment
variable. Under MSVC, this is achieved through the variable called "INCLUDE".

I don't know the equivalent for GCC, but I guess using CPPFLAGS and the
-I compiler flag could do it.
