Unfortunately I was unable to fix my problems with matlab 6.5 aka R13
this way.  First, I had to go into

	/usr/local/matlab6.5/sys/java/jre/glnx86

(instead of /usr/local/matlab6.5/sys/java), since this is where the
actual symlink to the jre to be used is located.

I tried changing the symlink to point to either one of

	/usr/pkg/java/sun-1.4
	/usr/pkg/java/sun-1.3.1
	/usr/pkg/java/jdk-1.1.8
	/usr/pkg/java/blackdown-1.3.1
	/usr/local/java/jre

The last one is my native installation of Sun's JDK version 1.4.2.

No success.

*However*, I found that symlinking

	/usr/local/matlab6.5/sys/java/jre/glnx86/jre ->
		/usr/local/matlab6.5/sys/java/jre/glnx86/jre1.1.8

allows me to run matlab with the full desktop again.  So thanks for
prompting me to poke around in that directory!
