IcedTea is an auto-tooled build harness for OpenJDK with additional code to replace the binary plugs (including a browser plug-in and WebStart implementation that are currently not a part of OpenJDK). Unfortunately, several web apps are broken by the liveconnect plugin, however, it is today 1000 times better than it was at the last release point (just a few weeks ago). I follow development closely, though I haven't built it in the past few weeks. I'll give it a full testing once OpenJDK b14 is available. Hopefully we'll see a 1.4 release against b14 soon (b14 is in the wraps). At any rate, judging by the latest test results, IcedTea6 today will probably work fine as a dependency in BLFS, but the browser plug-in is the big stickler ATM.
