First of all, thanks for review.

The clause with "find" was only a line that has not been changed in the spec.
So, I've considered it as a new package, and a history, from my viewpoint, is
not interesting for anybody. Nevertheless, if you prefer then I'll save the
changelog.

As the package was orphaned more than three months and it also has been
deprecated I guess it is an updated package. Hence, I use the following rule:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Java#Java_on_Fedora
"... AOT compilation using GCJ has been deprecated (made optional) and new or
updated packages will be built using OpenJDK to produce regular Java bytecode.
..."

I don't see any reasons to save gcj bits in the package. The F12 release
doesn't include this package, therefore it is a proof that there are not any
existing dependencies on the gcj bits of this package, and it can be removed
without any problems. 
And also, I think, it is clear why so dangerously use of a "Java" environment
that has not passed the testing via Java Compatibility Kit.
I guess we shouldn't spend the time on support of the deprecated technology.

The second release is prepared for review:
Spec URL: http://victorv.fedorapeople.org/files/jcodings.spec
SRPM URL: http://victorv.fedorapeople.org/files/jcodings-1.0.2-2.fc13.src.rpm
