[moneydance] New Java not compatible with Moneydance???

[Gordon Alley]

I haven't had a chance to check it yet (I'm still at work), but folks
replying to my question on another thread have pointed me to the invisible
folder ~/.moneydance. There's apparently an error log text file in there,
and a subfolder that contains the extensions.
