Could we rewrite the test so that in the jni.h fallback (which is what
will almost always actually find the appropriate CFLAGS) we first
check `test -f path/include/jni.h` then try compile as normal, and if
that fails on *linux* we try compile with -I path/include/linux as
well?

We could skip the test -f, but that will slow things down when no JDK
is present on the system.
