What copy of Java did you download & install? A JDK, a JRE?

Here I've built and used Java support with (cross-built) MinGW binaries ever
since I figured out how to get Java support cross-compiled in mxe-octave. I
described that in the maintainers ML (IIRC somewhere in July).

Don't know if it helps but my octave.mk has been attached. 
You'd need to adapt the SHA1 checksum and configure settings. Note that I
simply copied the contents of Windows <JAVA_HOME>/include/win32/ to Linux
<JAVA_HOME>/include (a kludge, but I think a decent one at that, for the
being being). (symlinking from Linux JAVA_HOME to the Windows side didn't
work with mxe-octave, I didn't bother to investigate)
