If you are looking for a java *compiler* and not a java *VM* you may want
to look at IBM's Jikes on (iirc) {www.}alphaworks.ibm.com. They have just
jumped on the opensource bandwaggon - the thing is said to build on L*nux,
so I don't see why it shouldn't build on NetBSD.

If you want a VM, you can hack kaffe to support NetBSD/m68k, or you can
sign Sun's license, get the 1.1.6/7 sources and the NetBSD/i386 patches
(see somewhere on www.nwtbsd.org) and hack away. I have the license form
here but too little time on my hands...
