My understanding was that there are no minor versions of Java 6 -
everything is 1.6.0 patchlevel XX and if the API changed then 1.6.1
would be released (which hasn't happened). Or is this different
because we are talking about a javax class rather java?
In any case, I'm updating a port and it looks like this class is
needed. Is setting JAVA_VENDOR=3D openjdk in the Makefile the best way
to force use of openjdk?
