We were seeing some compile errors when building Mapnik-jni @3fe88faon on 64 bit Ubuntu 11.10:

https://github.com/SpatialInteractive/mapnik-jni

It sounds like Mapnik just needed some special ltdl fussing for these java bindings (node.js and python bindings appear to be unaffected).

The workaround is cloning Dane's fork:

https://github.com/springmeyer/mapnik-jni

And then applying this Mapnik patch:

After building Mapnik, you'll get a successful compile of Mapnik-jni.

Here's the original issue:

Thanks for the help on this @springmeyer!
