I'll refrain from commenting on this policy.

Strictly speaking, you can build the package but you can't build the
docs.

The alternative - coming in an Ant 1.6 release close to you soon - is
to provide a different build file for your Debian build.  In that
build file <import> the original build file and override the target[1]
that creates the javadocs with one that uses <gjdoc>.

will do.

[1] I've never thought I'd recommend to override targets - and
