If that is the case, then, I think, Michael may consider them, under
the assumption that you agree to care for these packages! ;-)

I always prefer the `free' GCJ based one. To use it, the steps are:

1. Build-Depend on java-gcj-compat-dev.
2. Depend on java-gcj-compa.
3. Use JAVA_HOME as /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj.

HTH.
