Shanghai jiao tong, Wiktionary, Harbaugh, and Ann all have "stork" rather than
"heron" - can't find the "small cup" definition at all -
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E9%9B%9A

Editor: And some other dicts have "heron", so who's the winner?
What could be more uninteresting, and of less importance? We are unlikely to ever know what specific bird (if any) this was. Who cares what is written in various English dicts? Read Shuowen, Kangxi, and then try to pinpoint the bird (keeping in mind that they were guessing themselves).
Shuowen f.i has 雚,小爵也。Yeah,"small bird", pretty open. But some zealous truthseeker translated it as "small cup". Couldn't read the fine print I guess.
Diff:
- 雚 雚 [guan4] /a heron/small cup/
# + 雚 雚 [guan4] /a stork/small cup/
+ 雚 雚 [guan4] /(archaic) stork/heron/

Java as programming language already has its own entry. "Island" form clearly does not refer to the language
Editor: As far as I can tell, 爪哇 is not used to refer to the programming language anyway.
e.g. JVM (Java Virtual Machine) = java虚拟机
