That was the view I ultimately took, and just made PL/Java suppress that
SPI readonly flag when going to look for the function code.

Until that change, you could run into the not-uncommon situation

in the same transaction, and hey presto, the VOLATILE ones all work,
and the IMMUTABLE ones aren't there yet.
