Sorry, I forget the details, it was years ago, but it came up in a
support context, and it was a genuine problem. There are plenty of other
major incompatibilities. I had another one just yesterday with the GNU
RMI Registry being unable to accept a bind() call from a JRE. Removing
GNU fixed it, as it invariably does.

I'm afraid I'm not going to be much help, as I can't remember any
further details. The situation may well have changed somewhat since
then, anyway.

Now that Java is free (as in freedom) maybe we'll see some OpenJDK
derived runtimes. The sticking point for me is the speed of the
interpreter (no JIT).

Cheers,
Paul
