Provide a basic free java platform, on which other packages (OOo) can build on

Registered by Matthias Klose

The current java packages provide byte code, which is interptered on runtime. Adding precompiled java packages (using gcj) makes applications run faster, although trades speed for space (memory and CD space). Updating to a newer classpath version is required for better java 1.4.2 compatibility. Sync major packes from unstable (ant, tomcat5).

Edgy update: 1.5 support?, classpath-generics?
