FWIW, I agree with this patch for the same reasons stated by Ian.
Other than massively increasing build times, I have not seen
substantial benefits for having java enabled by default.  Ada, on the
other hand, has shown more usefulness in exposing bugs (particularly,
middle end) and is many times faster.

This is the kind of patch that requires more consensus or agreement
from the java maintainers.  aph, are you dead set against disabling
java?  Is there anything we could do to change your mind?


Thanks.  Diego.
