I think that the java version produced by Apple did have a different
layout of the jdk image.
You can see traces of this in the boot-jdk.m4 where configure looks
for Classes/Classes.jar if it does not find rt.jar.

The OpenJDK sources have, as far as I know, always produced the
standard cross platform layout, ie rt.jar.
