Hi, Nerses.

I've never used RULES_JAVA, so I'm not commenting on any of your
reported problems, except I will say that your use of a tilde character
('~') in your JAVA_DIR path might be a problem.  That is normally a
special syntax recognized by certain shells that will be expanded to a
user's home directory.  That might not work as you're expecting in GNU
Make.  I suggest replacing that with an absolute path.
