No, it can't. :( Unfortunately, JDBM appears to be a pretty dead project.

FCL is just an impl of a pluggable interface though. If you don't want 
it in 3.0 and if we can't find a valid replacement by the time AS is 
ready to consume 3.0, then I can always pull the FCL code into the 
AS/EJB3 source tree.
