Given the new info disabling / removing the java sub-package is fine with me.

Well, its normal for Fedora packages to enable as much features / bindings as
possible. But its not mandatory, so although I would prefer c++ support being
enabled (*), I'll also approve the package with it disabled. Note that Debian
does have c++ support enabled be default.

* unless there are good reasons not too, and requiring libstdc++ is not a good
reason IMHO
