This package is part of the JDK tools.jar file and is not contained in
the JRE. If you really, really need this package, you may bundle a JDK
1.5 jar file with the scala bunde just like the scala libraries.
You may also - if not sure whether it is really required - just specify
an optional import for this package:
<Import-Package>
com.sun.*;resolution:=optional
</Import-Package>
Then the bundle will resolve regardless of whether any required com.sun
package is available or not.

This does not help, because the Import-Package declaration of
com.sun.tools.javac requires a bundle to export that package. This is
not the case with the sling.bootdelegation setting. You might want to
have the system bundle export that package by using
sling.system.packages.class.java.lang.String=com.sun.tools.javac

See above ;-)
But, then we should really look into whether com.sun.tools.javac is
really required ... So my first approach (optional resolution and no
system.packages) would be interesting to see.
