> to our requirements is deemed to undefined behavior. A developer must be able 
> to set this simple env var properly. In most cases on Unix/Linux OpenJDK is 
> installed anyway which means that {{which java}} points to a JDK anyway. For 
> instance, the {{JAVA_HOME}} discovery on FreeBSD competely fails and sets it 
> to {{/usr/local}} because {{/usr/local/bin/java}} is actually a wrapper 
> script.
