This is due to the fact that Mozilla is now compiled with gcc 3.3, and that 
j2re1.3 is still compiled with gcc 2.95 ; both are incompatible.

You can get a working j2re1.4 (blackdown doesn't provide 1.3 compiled with gcc 
3.x) following this procedure :
- getting the "official" binary package 
ftp://ftp.easynet.be/blackdown/JDK-1.4.1/i386/01/j2sdk-1.4.1-01-linux-i586-gcc3.2.bin
- getting the diff file made by Sebastien Noël 
http://twolife.free.fr/debian/j2se1.4-i586_1.4.1.0.1-4.diff
- put the binary package into some directory
- inside this directory, use the patch with the command line :
# patch -p1 -i /path/to/j2se1.4-i586_1.4.1.0.1-4.diff
- now you can create a package with dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot or fakeroot 
debian/rules binary
