> Build-Depends: gcc

Two issues here:
1) gcc is build-essential, and should not be declared as a build-dependency
2) the second build-depends line overrides the first one, resulting in
   effectively no useful build-depends (because of #1).

Also note that the buildd's will choose the first of the alternatives,
so j2sdk1.3 will be used on all of the autobuilders, possibly resulting
in errors (when it doesn't exist, but j2sdk1.4 does...)
