Tamas,
~    Aside from free java and the gcjwebplugin, I think your options are
pretty limited.  The 1.3.1 Blackdown JRE/JDK for powerpc is pretty new;
the only other JDKs for powerpc-linux are those from IBM.  If you use
these, be sure to use the latest version of the java-package utility,
which allows you to package non-free JREs and JDKs as Debian packages.
