To make things worse: as I had to dismiss the nb-javac dialog after the download failure, the IDE left me in a state where all Java modules where turned off (I noticed only after having tried to open a Maven project). I manually installed the plugins from http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/73454/nb-javac-library and activated the modules. Now Java is back but the modules are still marked as deactivated...
