I think a lawyer would have to pick apart the JRE redistribution license
to confirm that this use case is acceptable... the catch-22 is that
pljava is running user java modules, not just the software its being
distributed with, and I'm not sure the redistribution license allows that.
specifically...

Software..., provided that (i) you distribute the Software ... only bundled as part of, and for the sole purpose of

its that 'sole purpose' part that I wonder about. FWIW, thats from the JRE 6 binary license, I didn't find the 7 or 8
onein a quick google search.
