 When updating cmake on a Mac without Java installed, the user is prompted
 with an apparently parentless GUI dialog to install the JRE. The dialog
 says, "To view this web content, you need to install the Java Runtime
 Environment." with "More Info..." and "OK" buttons.

 I'm not sure if a +java variant makes as much sense here as it would with
 gettext, but either way it would be nice not to have unexpected Java
 installation dialogs while updating ports.
