I don't think there's a Debian package of it yet. I've got the binary
package from Blackdown installed in /usr/local and it works more or
less fine.

The binary package works fine under glibc 2.1 *if* you always run with
no JIT compiler and green threads. So run
java -green -Djava.compiler= myclass
javac -green foo.java
See README.linux in the distribution for more information.
