I did have a look at Ola's packages for the compiler and the vm,
currently looking at the openJDK. A headless jdk/vm not needing the
binary blobs seems to be most likely go get it into the free sections
of the archive. Because openJDK won't be available for all
architectures we will have to use gcj for most of our architectures.
I didn't set up a repository yet.
