OK. I'm investigating who and why are in contrib. Be aware that there is
a little swing implementation in classpath, maybe we can try to compile
with it and see what happens. I'll check.

At the moment, I have 60 packages in contrib that depends or suggests
java.*-runtime or java-virtual-machine. I'll upload the list at
people.d.o/~avdyk today.

Sure. But I thought Mark put it in contrib, waiting for an xslt engine
in main.
