Nope, there is none. Actually the spatial effort on H2 is languishing
as well, the author won't implement R-tree indexes for the moment and
thus the datastore is stuck into doing full scans in memory everytime
a spatial operator is used.

The best embedded spatial db today seems to be Spatialite, too bad
it is native code, so it requires recompiling on various platforms, and
there are also issues with its java bindings under OSX (or so I heard).
