I was worried when I saw the GIF stuff before - it looks like Sun are explicitly using their GIF
generation stuff rather than using the public Image routines (which we implement in our own way
naturally). We'd have to hack up our own GIF library which worked likes Suns (as well as
working like it currently does). From a technical point of view we don't want to do this, but
I'm not sure how to make HotJava work otherwise.
