ClassLoader.findLibrary
was only overridden in sun.misc.Launcher.ExtClassLoader, which was the class loader used by the extension mechanism. As this mechanism has been removed and was error prone, I have advised people not to use it for years. When ClassLoader.findLibrary returns null, maybe some callers do some platform-dependent lookup but ClassLoader.findLibrary itself has become completely useless and has been totally useless for those who have followed my advise. In other words, I think that this call can be safely removed. I'd like to know Sven's opinion about that, maybe I'm missing something.
Edit.: Wade, actually, it's an excellent idea, it will help us to get rid of native libraries coming from obsolete JOGL versions installed as extensions especially under OS X :)
