Sun's JDK isn't exactly DFSG and Blackdown and IBM's version have similar
problems. Currently they're even impossible to include in the non-free
section due to some legal issues[0].
However, thanks to the work of Stephen Zander we're able to include a line
in sources.list. J2SDK 1.4 is currently a blackdown betaversion; IIRC it's
in the unstable-archive on the blackdown-mirrors (see blackdown.org for
mirrors). Only available for i386, PPC and Sparc AFAIK.

[0] See the archives for more. In addition there's a GR regarding the
removal of non-free from debian alltogether I heard.
