The trigger script in the java-1.5.0-sun-plugin package that is intended 
to set up this link tries to figure out where to put the link by 
searching for the definition of MOZ_DIST_BIN in /usr/bin/firefox. 
However, in the FC4 firefox, MOZ_DIST_BIN is specified as:

MOZ_DIST_BIN="$MOZ_LIB_DIR/firefox-1.0.4"
rather than
MOZ_DIST_BIN="/usr/lib/firefox-1.0.4"

and the script doesn't know how to handle that. This is probably worth 
bringing up with the people at jpackage.

Paul.
