All other Debian-supported architectures.  There are debian-ports.org
architectures which are also blacklisted.

I'd tend to agree.  mips(el) were blacklisted 7 years ago.  It seems the
Java implementations have made some progress since then.  I ran test
builds (using both gcj and openjdk) on eder.d.o and gabrielli.d.o, both
of which ran fine.

Peter, what do you think of a) dropping the arch blacklists for Java and
b) changing from gcj-jdk to default-jdk?
