Cool, I also saw that nspr is in oe.dev nowadays. So I removed those
from the Jalimo repo.

There is only jna and the openjdk recipes left. JNA builds but I have
not a single application/library
that makes use of it by now so I cannot tell whether it actually works.
(It uses libffi, so I do not expect issues).

The biggest flaw of the OpenJDK recipes atm is that there are too many
of them. I would like to get rid of everything below 6b18 (the very latest)
to in turn get rid of many quirks for older versions of the icedtea
build system. However we are having troubles building 6b18 flawlessly
right now, so fixing this has precedence.

I am not sure what the problem is. Most Java stuff is in OE.dev for
quite some time.
