Do you have a link to what you tried in this respect?
We have an outstanding change request to package the binaries up inside uDig;
this would prevent them being shared with other applications
on the disk; and would result in uDig shipping a second copy of GDAL. While
this is smaller then uDig having its own JRE; it would be preferable from a
size point of view if you could get the script to work.

I am not keen to make a special copy of uDig just for the live dvd.

You only mentioned JAI here; are you also looking at ImageIO and ImageIO-Ext?
Other projects such as Geomajas are more likely to conflict on the copy of
ImageIO-Ext and GDAL used.
