Well, with -java it works.
Which JDK are you using?
According to $ java-config --list-available-vms [blackdown-jdk-1.4.2.01] "Blackdown JDK 1.4.2.01" (/etc/env.d/java/20blackdown-jdk-1.4.2.01) * [blackdown-jdk-1.4.1] "Blackdown JDK 1.4.1" (/etc/env.d/java/20blackdown-jdk-1.4.1) and 'eix blackdown.jdk' this should be 1.4.2.01-r2.

I don't know why, but after i compiled vtk successfully with java support on my laptop, i tried it on my workstation again - and, i can't tell why - this time it worked out of the box. Thus i'm marking this one as INVALID.
