2) Is anyone testing against kaffe or other non-sun compilers?
This is important to Debian as any software that can only
be built from a closed-source JDK is considered
a second class citizen. As you can see, we've been poking
at this issue on Lucene 1.4.3 for quite some time [1]
and it is tricky. Support from upstream is always appreciated.
I don't know much about it, but Fedora Core 4 ships a version of Lucene compiled with gcj that I believe is compiled with gcj. It'd be easy enough to see what they do in the .src.rpm though and as Debian maintainer I'm sure you're well versed in getting ideas from other builds!
