It appears that mozilla only requires that the plugin be compiled with 
gcc-3.2. I was able to keep my older version of Sun's j2re rpm package 
(j2re-1.4.1-fcs).

I downloaded and uncompressed the blackdown java package built with 
gcc-3.2, and copied only the plugin to my existing java directory. In my 
case:
/usr/java/j2re1.4.1/plugin/i386/ns610/javaplugin_oji.so

I removed the old link in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/, and created one to 
the new version. (in other words, I removed the link to  
libjavaplugin_oji.so and created a new one pointing to  
javaplugin_oji.so.

Seems to work fine.
