If I'm correct, the embedded perl code is run through the Safe module,
which would understandably restrict your usage of a JVM
module. (Otherwise, an exploit allowing user-entered data to be executed
within Safe would be able execute arbitrary Java code -- even more
dangerous than arbitrary perl executed in Safe).
From what I understand, a global UserTag isn't run through the Safe
module. Read up on UserTags and put one in interchange.cfg that uses your
JVM. That might work.
