Truthfully, I'm not too sure. I have the commit for checking to make sure it
was available
(https://git.videolan.org/?p=libbluray.git;a=commitdiff;h=84ffa5d2e36a5b92dbd8cdeee1e9dc332dcf1b57)
and I've checked their mailinglist, but no discussion around it being there.

Agreed, which is why I stuck it in native-inputs, drawing from java.scm as
inspiration.

It turns out I typo'd in the commit message, the version is 0.9.0 and not
0.9.1. I dug around in configure.ac a bit more and found a flag to not
require ant and java at compile time, and would have the package at the same
state it was at pre-update in terms of java support.
