I have no idea, I thought of supporting to revert the status of how it used to
be. Perhaps James or Martin Pitt (uploader of that change) can give a better
explanation.
Or we should file this to the Debian maintainer upstream?
This is the changelog note from 5.2-2ubuntu2:
* Merge from debian unstable, remaining changes:
- libbcel-java-doc: Add alternative dependency on libgcj-doc.
- debian/control: Drop libbcel-java-doc's dependency to
libxerces2-java-doc to a suggestion, since that is in multiverse.
This is how it was before (5.2-2ubuntu1) in Ubuntu debian/control:
Package: libbcel-java-doc
Architecture: all
Section: doc
Depends: libgcj-doc | classpath-doc, libxerces2-java-doc
Suggests: libbcel-java
Description: Documentation for Byte Code Engineering Library (BCEL)
Documentation for the BCEL Java library which is used to manipulate Java
bytecode.
.

This is the Debian debian/control (5.2-3):
Package: libbcel-java-doc
Architecture: all
Section: doc
Depends: classpath-doc, libxerces2-java-doc
Suggests: libbcel-java
Description: Documentation for Byte Code Engineering Library (BCEL)
Documentation for the BCEL Java library which is used to manipulate Java
bytecode.
.

I've added a new patch to set as Depends only "libxerces2-java-doc".
