 From my very limited testing, it doesnt :(

With IcedTea-Web 1.0
$ ./javaws -about
netx v0.5 - (C)2001-2003 Jon A. Maxwell (jmaxwell at users.sourceforge.net)
Launching about window...
net.sourceforge.jnlp.LaunchException: Fatal: Launch Error: Could not 
launch JNLP file.
[snip]
Caused by: java.security.AccessControlException: access denied 
(java.lang.RuntimePermission 
accessClassInPackage.net.sourceforge.jnlp.about)
[snip]

With IcedTea-Web HEAD before the change to non-JDK dirs:
$ ./javaws -about
icedtea-web 1.1pre+rd7fee305bd4f
Launching about window...
net.sourceforge.jnlp.LaunchException: Fatal: Launch Error: Could not 
launch JNLP file.

(As an aside, I wonder why the hg revision shown does not correspond to 
the version used to build).

With IcedTea-Web HEAD
$ bin/javaws -about
icedtea-web 1.1pre+rd7fee305bd4f
Launching about window...
JAR 
jar:file:/home/omajid/code/icedtea-web-image/share/icedtea-web/netx.jar!/net/sourceforge/jnlp/resources/about.jar 
not found. Continuing.

I posted the Makefile.am patch right around the same time Jiri posted 
this one; Deepak approved it and I have pushed it to HEAD already.
