Hmmm, you want Sun's Java5 for HP!  Not too likely.  See
<http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/system-configurations.html>.
As far I can tell, only Sparc, x86 and Itanium processors
are supported and even for these the matrix is incomplete.

There might be hope in the future given Sun's decision to
open source Java.

For PA-RISC linux, there's the support within GCC.  There may
be one or two other implementations but I don't know any details
about these.
