libxerces2-java no longer depends on GCJ in unstable, but the package
didn't transition to testing. I guess some help from a FTP master is
needed here.

Hi,

libxerces2-java depends or build-depends on GCJ. GCJ has been dropped
upstream since GCC 7, so we are dropping it from Debian. Thus please
either drop support for GCJ if you are just building an alternative
package with GCJ support (e.g. ant-gcj, ecj-gcj) or switch to
default-jdk / default-jre as appropriate.

Cheers, Emilio
