This isn't in IcedTea6 yet but is in IcedTea7, which should be safe;
the likelihood of someone wanting to ship VisualVM with that is pretty
low.  What versions of IcedTea6 are in each of the Fedoras now?  I'm
guessing this would want to go in HEAD and then be used for F12 and up
as part of the next release.
