Microsoft rescued Sun a couple of years ago with a cash injection
(similar to what they did with Apple), and the companies reached some
agreement on patents back then.  Those contracts probably remain in
force despite the acquisition.

However, it is unclear to what extent such agreements cover downstream
users of such technology.  The best defense seems to be not to become
too successful.
