      Native libraries used by Mac OS X for Java 7 need to have an extension of .dylib. They currently have an extension of jnilib. While that was okay in Java 6, for compatibility with the BSD port this was changed to dylib, since a jnilib and dylib are now identical.

      The macosx-port supported both jnilib and dylib, but the 7u4 release will only support dylib.
