Hi Hunter,

I have just pushed version 0.33.3 of java-atk-wrapper with split
packages for OpenJDK7 and OpenJDK8.

People using OpenJDK7 should just update their system.
People using OpenJDK8 should install java-atk-wrapper-openjdk8.

I have tested this with the SwingSet example available here [0] as
well as with JadX from our repos [1]. Orca does speaks up these GUIs.

Friendly reminder: to setup Java ATK Wrapper, one needs to:

- configure the proper JRE with `archlinux-java`
- set `export _JAVA_OPTIONS="-Dassistive_technologies=org.GNOME.Accessibility.AtkWrapper"`
(append `-verbose:jni` for verbose output)

If you stumble on any bug with these, please open a bug report [2] and
assign it to me.
