Hi. The issue has been discussed on the debian java mailing list, see the discussion following http://lists.debian.org/debian-java/2013/11/msg00100.html http://lists.debian.org/debian-java/2013/12/msg00002.html
It was found that a build on unstable would require further changes to the package. It might also be difficult to do. The reason are changes in build dependencies on unstable. It would in any case increase the size of the change and thereby make it less suitable for stable. The change is currently small (half a dozen lines plus in the startup script, one line changed in the control file). When adapted to unstable it is likely to end up with a multiple of that. As a result I am back to request a direct pu. Be aware that git currently holds changes after the debian/7.0.1+dfsg1-6 tag that are not relevant.
