There are configure options for this:

        --with-jaxp-drop-zip="${DISTDIR}/${JAXP_TARBALL}" \
        --with-jaxws-drop-zip="${DISTDIR}/${JAXWS_TARBALL}" \
        --with-jaf-drop-zip="${DISTDIR}/${JAF_TARBALL}" \

There's not really been anyone maintaining VisualVM support since
Lillian left the project.  A patch went into IcedTea7 but not IcedTea6
sometime ago which I believe updated it.  I didn't include it in 6
because it broke the current Fedora build at the time.

http://icedtea.classpath.org/hg/icedtea/rev/d4fe9b0323e0

The whole thing seems very fragile and dependent on various versions
of NetBeans.  If you know something about how to maintain it, we'd
welcome patches.

As Matthias (doko) said, this is a case of having additional ant
packages installed, usually, and varies from distro to distro.
