RFH: db5.1 build fails with configure: error: The Java compiler javac failed (see config.log, check the CLASSPATH?)

Hi,

I need a help with java build on mips, the db5.1 build fails with:

checking SOSUFFIX from libtool... .so
checking MODSUFFIX from libtool... .so
checking JMODSUFFIX from libtool... .so
checking for javac... javac
configure: error: The Java compiler javac failed (see config.log,
check the CLASSPATH?)
dh_auto_configure: ../dist/configure --build=mips-linux-gnu
--prefix=/usr --includedir=${prefix}/include

make[1]: *** [override_dh_auto_configure] Error 2
checking if javac works... make[1]: Leaving directory
`/build/buildd2-db_5.1.25-7-mips-HWTzBc/db-5.1.25'
make: *** [build] Error 2

It works on all other (buildd supported) platforms, so I quite don't
have a clue what might be causing this.

You can find full build log at:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=db&arch=mips&ver=5.1.25-7&stamp=1303372395

I would rather solve this than disable Java building on mips (which
would be quickest solution).
