A better way seems to be:
Build-Depends: default-jdk (>= 2:1.6)

which is satisfied only by arches having openjdk-6 or openjdk-7 as
default currently.

That way, if kfreebsd (or any other architecture) switches to openjdk as
default in the future, your package can be built again without changes.
 (Although - I'm hoping kfreebsd, along with all release architectures,
might be able to use openjdk-7 for jessie, greatly simplifying things
and making this change unnecessary).

In the meantime, the outdated kfreebsd binaries could be removed by
ftpmaster if you'd like the package to migrate.

Thanks,
Regards,
