Blackdown java plugin does not work with newest mozilla

[Zeno Gantner <zg@zenogantner.de>]

Hello,
My mozilla (latest from sid) does not accept the java plugin shipped
with blackdown java. First I tried j2re1.3, now 1.4 - beta (the debian
packages by blackdown.org, from one of their mirrors).

This page in the BTS mentions a similar (the same?) problem:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=184666

According to the mozilla plugin doc website, blackdown java is
compiled using gcc-3.2, as is mozilla.

Normally, mozilla starts without error message, but there is no
java plugin on the about:plugin page. The flashplayer plugin
works, and the mozilla version is generally _very_ stable (no
crashes at all).

When starting mozilla from the application crash dialog of a
GNOME app started from the terminal without "&", I see this
message:

LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library
/usr/lib/j2se/1.4/jre/plugin/i386/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so
[/usr/lib/j2se/1.4/jre/plugin/i386/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so: undefined
symbol:
GetGlobalServiceManager__16nsServiceManagerPP17nsIServiceManager]
LoadPlugin: failed to initialize shared library
/usr/lib/j2se/1.4/jre/plugin/i386/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so
[/usr/lib/j2se/1.4/jre/plugin/i386/mozilla/javaplugin_oji.so: undefined
symbol:
GetGlobalServiceManager__16nsServiceManagerPP17nsIServiceManager]

Has anybody an idea?

I hope this is the right place to ask. If not, please tell me so.
Before I posted, I had a look at all documentation of the relevant
packages in /usr/share/doc, at the Debian BTS, at some Debian mailing
lists, and the mozilla plugin doc website. Except for the bug above, I
did not find anything related to this. Who is experiencing a similar
behaviour?
