-----------------------------------------

This should be an easy thing to fix, so I'll try to get it into 10.6. The Windows BAT files already works without DERBY_HOME set, so we only need to make this change for the Unix shell scripts.

> The scripts under bin should be able to run without requiring the users to set DERBY_HOME explicitly. The script derby_common.sh, which is sourced by all the scripts under bin, contains code to detect DERBY_HOME based on the value of $0, but since the scripts need to know DERBY_HOME in order to source derby_common.sh, they still fail when DERBY_HOME is not set.
> When I removed this part of bin/ij
> -------
> if [ -z "$DERBY_HOME" ] ; then
>   echo "Error: DERBY_HOME is not set. Please set the DERBY_HOME environment variable"
>   echo "to the location of your Derby installation."
>   exit 1
> fi
> . $DERBY_HOME/bin/derby_common.sh
> -------
> and in-lined the code in derby_common.sh in its place, I was able to run ij successfully by typing the command './bin/ij' without setting DERBY_HOME first.
