You could try something like:
locate <file> | xargs ls -dl
... and then work out how to sort the resulting list by date.

That's correct; anybody who tries to put a Java interpreter into the
kernel will get shot. :) You need the binfmt_misc module and the
javawrapper utility (linux/Documentation/java.txt, or
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~cjwatson/debian/ for a Debian package
that I haven't managed to make official yet - beware, I haven't tried it
with Java 1.2 either, so it may need updating).
