Both of them are compliant [*] which Sun's JCK test suite, so they should
both be very useful.  The dire warnings are more to disclaim any
responsbility by the volunteers involved in porting them than anything
else.

In general they are both pretty stable.  The 1.4 JDK is a lot faster
though.

* The 1.4 JDK isn't compliant in a mixed IPv4/IPv6 environment.
