Meh, I just put it in master.  User-visible changes are:

1)  For people on 10.7 or later who have Oracle's Java-1.7.x installed, 
there will be system-java17* packages, plus the system-java and 
system-java-dev package will exist for people who don't have a legacy 
Apple Java installed, e.g. people who installed Mountain Lion after 
Apple dropped it.

2)  On 10.5/i386, system-java16* goes away because Java-1.6.x was 
distributed as x86_64 only for some reason there.
