with the source package of the blackdown java 1.4beta debs, I've built
debs[1] with contents of the above bins. after fixing a lot of small bugs
(many thanks to Andrew Lau), the packages are sort of final.

I hope they will become obsolete in the near future though, as the
mpkg-j2sdk[2] package makes its way into unstable. To me that seems to be
a cleaner solution, as no obscure third-party apt repositories (like mine)
are needed.
