This is not an issue with the java-devel packages, but rather an issue
with either the upstream configure or an issue with the GCJ packaging.

If it is lack of JNI support in GCJ, that is one thing. If it is simply
that the package is expecting a differnt layout that is another.

I was not referring specifically to your packages. But I also haven't
been able to look and see if there is a simple fix available for GCJ.
You should raise the issue on this list though because there are people
here who can help with either issue.
