Error Messages:
-- begin ---
This script is a placeholder for the /usr/bin/java
master link required by jpackage.org conventions. libgcj's
rmiregistry, rmic and jar tools are now slave symlinks to these
masters, and are managed by the alternatives(8) system.
This change was necessary because the rmiregistry, rmic and jar tools
installed by previous versions of libgcj conflicted with symlinks
installed by jpackage.org JVM packages.
This script was designed to be overridden by the supported RHEL3 JRE
packages, java-1.4.2-bea and java-1.4.2-ibm. It is installed as an
alternative symlink as /usr/bin/java. It will override a third-party
(non-RHEL3) JRE's java command if the JRE's bin directory is listed
after /usr/bin in PATH. In that case, it is recommended that the
third-party JRE's bin directory be listed first in PATH instead.

Did you actually issue "java ../netbeans-5.5.1/bin/netbeans" to your shell?
If you did, you started gnus java, hence the message about libgcj.
The command to issue is "prepare_system -s java,netbeans
There is a man page for prepare_system with some examples.
libgcj-java-placeholder.sh
