They will be `linux-{sun,inprise,ibm}-jdk12'. I think we could
consider Blackdown's one as fundamental and original version of Linux
JDK 1.2. Sun and Insprise had just made modifications or enhancements
over it and IBM had made another implementation, based on Sun's work.
Blackdown's credit will appear in COMMENT and/or DESCR anyway.
However, `linux-blackdown-jdk12' would be acceptable for me though
it's kind of too long. :)

You seem to forget the most important thing. A port which runs
under the Linux mode should have the `linux-' prefix, especially when
we (are to) have a native version.
