It builds successfully with openjdk-6-jdk in pbuilder. Since there are disagreements, I won't sponsor it just yet - not until at least getting input from slytherin.
As for openjdk-6 vs sun-java5, I think the possibility to get it into universe (or main in Debian's case) outweighs the loss of compatibility with JRE 5. In Ubuntu, no binary packages currently depend on it anyway, because of the FTBFS.
