Oh that's great. We should probably change to openjdk-7 as default
ASAP, but how should we go about that? Other arches simply changed this
in java-common in sid, but those are merely stepping from openjdk-6 to
openjdk-7.
Should we treat this as a transition co-ordinated with the release team,
so that all rdepends are rebuilt? I'd actually prefer this in any case;
it would fix some past build failures such as eclipse. And possibly
libjogl-java, leading to scilab and more being built. (But perhaps
these packages should also have had tighter Build-Depends if gcj is
insufficient.)
