I'm not sure what the best solution is, but here are some alternatives
to consider:

  1.  Change the names of gcj packages, so that they don't match the
      JPackage versions.  For example, gcj-tomcat5 could "provide"
      tomcat5.  It should be pretty easy to conditionalize this in the
      SPEC files.

  2.  Move the Fedora gcj packages into a separate repository from the
      rest of the distribution.  This would at least allow people to
      create a "pure" JPackage system by simply disabling this repo.

That's all I can think of for now.  Perhaps others have ideas.
