If Toba still uses the biss-only (BISS-AWT libs for stand-alone AWT), this is
far less 1.1 compatible than what we currently have (I left that around
November last year). And (hopefully) way less compatible than the next version
(aimed at Swing "compatibility"), which is closing in now.

If it is not, and does require the JDK classes.zip+libs, that is more than
likely a show stopper. We have all sort of trouble to make the kaffe AWT behave
more compatible with the JDK - you shouldn't get the idea you just have to
follow the specs (=weak class docu). IMHO, there is no way to extend
compatibility to the libawt-call level without looking at Sun sources (you need
to go to the sun.awt.XX peer implementations)
