Purity does not need to give way to utility. GNU Classpath will run
programs which conform to Sun's public API. If someone has written
code which depends on undocumented classes/methods/fields, then that's
their fault.
Once the ISO spec for Java rolls around, I seriously doubt that the
only two class libraries in existence will be ours and Sun's.
