Thinking more about it, I think it would be safer and clearer to add a 
clarification. Here is what I propose:

"Rule 2 is not applicable to subset Profiles of Java SE that do not 
include the {@code java.beans} package. In that case it may not be 
possible to reconstruct an instance of <em>J</em>, or it may be 
reconstructed by the means defined by subsequent rules."

Does that seem reasonable?
