Given all the other issues, I don't think it really matters.  The
conflict with GCJ and such is a much bigger issue; I don't see Fedora
dropping GCJ or the alternatives system that allows either GCJ or the
Sun JDK for development.

According to this note by Simon Phipps that's not true:

Quotation from the comment:

"No, it's OK to distribute along with GCJ, GNU/Classpath and so on - that was one of the explicit intents of the new license as that was previously the chief obstacle to distribution with GNU/Linux."
