Java 1.6.0_20 is out, new java-sun-1.6.0.spec file to go with it

Well, 1.6.0_19 lasted all of two weeks due to a Windows security
issue. (Why am I not surprised?)

I'm attaching a .spec file for java-sun-1.6.0, for us RHEL 5 users.
Note that this does build a nosrc.rpm, it does require JDK to compile,
and it does require jpackage-utils from JPackage rather than the
antique RHEL 5 version. And installing that jpackaage-util also
requires either significant yum configuration editing, which is pretty
painful if you have RHEL and its weird yum-rhn-plugin that has no way
to gracefully manage yum-style exclusions or preferences, or my
previously published "jpackage-utils-compat-el5" package to satisfy
the RHEL dependencies on /usr/bin/rebuild-security-providers.

Enjoy.
