The problem is/was much more subtle than the OP implied.

Java functioned correctly for some things, but not others. Change the
build, and it worked correctly for a different set of things, but failed
for the original set. Switch to a third build, and there was a different
set of failures and successes.

The only viable fix, is to completely rip Java out, and prohibit both
extensions, and future code submissions that require Java.

and politly, but firmly prohibit any extenion that requires Java, and
all coide that calls Java. IOW, make Java a prohibited language.
