There's some info on the wiki about common application problems,
mostly involving use of 'sun.*' APIs.

Usually I bring up a new application in the most obvious way: try it
and then debug what doesn't work :-)

I'm not sure if there's a particular reason.  Probably a combination
of history, ease of setting up the build, ease of not having to figure
out a sensible way to divide it, plus compatibility with (perhaps some
old version of :) the JDK.

Perhaps one of the Kaffe maintainers can reply.
