Prior to 0.23, only i386 users had plugin support; everyone had links
that were i386-specific.  In introducing arch-specific pathing, the JDK
pathing for Sun and Blackdown appear to have been harmed.  Sorry for not
being more specific earlier, but this is what I mean by the fact that
they are, indeed, related.  I discovered your specific problem as part
of fixing bug #301806; read the whole report and you will see the part
about jre/ missing from the path.

Until 0.23, everyone but i386 users had unusable plugins. :-)  Keep an
eye out for 0.24, it will have the fix.  Thanks for your use and support
of Debian and java-package.
