The patch has not been merged (I don't remember why), but more importantly, the Java support in Buildroot has been removed in 2012.02. Nobody was taking care of it, so we marked it deprecated a few releases ago, no-one stepped up to maintain it, so it has finally been removed. If you are interested in bringing the Java/jamvm support in Buildroot up-to-date, we would definitely be interested by your patches.
