I did read about Java's "headless" installation capabilty wherein it allows installation without GUI/AWT libraries (please correct me if I am wrong). I tried setting the value of DISPLAY (export DISPLAY=localhost:0.0) but didn't work. Please suggest any solution for this. FYI - I don't have root or sudo privileges on the UNIX server.

The buildear utility requires an X server to be executed.
To work around this, try adding java.property.java.awt.headless=true in the bwengine.tra. If it doesn't do the trick, you might want to ask your sys admin to install and configure Xvfb, a virtual X server.
