Which is the smallest problem with Sun'S Java.  They don't do "alternatives"
either (you have to set them up manually, if you want to have GCC's Java in
parallel).  And Sun's license doesn't allow anybody to repackage it so that it
blends with the rest of the particular distribution (basically, fixing the
problem you had and the alternatives issue).
