I have 2 ML machines here, both upgraded from 10.7 via appstore (I 
didn't know they still provide DVDs). I also updated xcode to 4.4 via 
appstore. I never downloaded any Java related packages directly from the 
Apple web site. On both machines, Fink was bootstrapped on 10.7 and then 
upgraded to 10.8. It didn't complain about missing java-dev, but then I 
didn't ask specifically.
I remember that on one of the machines I noticed that some java 
components were missing (when trying to run matlab), so I typed "javac", 
upon which there was the usual Apple window asking if one wants to 
install a Java runtime environment. It then downloaded some unspecified 
packages. Looking in /var/db/receipts, I see that it must have been

com.apple.pkg.JavaMDNS
com.apple.pkg.JavaSecurity
com.apple.pkg.JavaEssentials
com.apple.pkg.JavaForMacOSX107

In particular, the directory 
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions, which previously 
was pretty empty, was populated from com.apple.pkg.JavaEssentials.
On the other machine, I see that the same packages were installed 
shortly after the upgrade to 10.8, but I don't remember what caused the 
installation, probably also a matlab test.

Maybe fink should trigger the java installation not only during 
bootstrap, but at other occasions when it finds that java-dev packages 
are missing.
