Can anyone clarify? I think it just means: "don't go building this JDK, slapping a 'myJavac' label on it and go trying to sell it on street corners or we'll get out legal ninjas to hunt you down - this means *you*, Mr Gates" i.e. it applies to the JDK itself, not software you roll with it. Although sadly this also parses as: "Don't give me any of that 'can we have a native 1.3 JVM for our OS, please Mister?' you long-haired BSD hippies!" - sigh...
