this, we only need some simple logic in java-env.mk to automatically
generate an ALTERNATIVES file for us.
There are two exceptions, though: fastjar and jikes (pointed out by tv@),
which do not use this file; they have to be handled manually.
Bump PKGREVISION for all affected packages.
While doing this, remove the java-wrapper package, obsoleted by the new
functionality provided by pkg_alternatives.

-current kernel from at least 2003-08-09. Previous 1.4.1 versions
never really worked all that well and needed special kernel options
as well as a -current kernel from that date, so updating to 1.4.2
is better than keeping both.
A complete list of changes from previous 1.4 JDKs is available at

Tyler R. Retzlaff in PR pkg/22429.
A complete list of changes is available at
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/ReleaseNotes.html but appears to consist of
two bug fixes:
- URLConnection openConnection with setUseCaches(true) fails (jpg, gif)
- Java webcams does not work on JRE1.4+
Sun for JDK 1.4.1. Pkgsrc changes include noting that some of the installed
files are config files and using bsd.pkg.install.mk to handle the file
copying and directory handling, and using a more scalable method to remove
files shared between the JRE and JDK during the JDK installation. Also,
the JDK 1.4.x series are now installed into ${LOCALBASE}/java/sun-1.4 so
that future updates of this package won't require a new JDK directory.
This closes PR 19853 by FUKAUMI Naoki <naoki at fukaumi.org>.
