Ahhh...  I'm too late:

I patched chk_spreadsheet_support.m to not bail out anymore with errors if
Java doesn't work. 
After all, error messages while Octave is starting up are so unnecessarily
obtrusive.
In case of Java problems it just returns silently now, unless the dbug
parameter is set to 1 or higher.

Erroneous path settings (where to search for .jars, esp. for OpenOffice)
still give errors; or do you want these silenced as well?

Anyway I've updated it in svn now. Perhaps for a next update of your testing
binary.

Did you include some check here to see if the Java package has been loaded?
IIRC Benjamin included these in the Java pkg rather than io pkg just because
of this dependency.
