I spoke with another user about this problem.  He reports that when he
built sun-j2sdk1.5 with java-package, his dpkg -L output includes a file
called /usr/lib/j2sdk1.5-sun/jre/lib/i386/client/classes.jsa which mine
does not.  classes.jsa does not appear anywhere at all in the output of
the java-package extraction, which I have logged at
http://wooledge.org/~greg/java-package.log for reference.  This "missing
classes.jsa file" might account for the size disrepancy, but I have no
idea why the java install script would omit it from the extraction.

classes.jsa is the only file that's "missing" from mine compared to his.

This is the original .bin file:

-rw-------  1 greg greg 48772357 2005-05-14 16:42 jdk-1_5_0_03-linux-i586.bin

"jsa" does not appear anywhere in the script part of the .bin file.  The
first hit I get on "jsa" is in the compressed binary data, so I'm *really*
stumped.
