I haven't followed PL/java either, but it doesn't look quite dead to me.
The last release was in September 2011, and there are active discussions
on the mailing lists. If it's not completely up-to-date with latest JDK
and PostgreSQL releases, perhaps bringing it up-to-date and then adding
some missing functionality would be a useful GSoC project.

I would suggest that you ask on the pl/java mailing list if there is
something suitable for a GSoC project there, and if one of the pl/java
developers would be willing to mentor.
