If you mean you don’t want to do this to link against the old Apple that for me hasn’t been an issue, I don’t really use it anymore.  
But if you can’t include the framework that would probably complicate the compile either XCode or command line.
You could probably find an old version of the Apple launcher stub and just use that for that particular jvm without using your own launcher code?
It would require special handling. But this is getting old enough you might expect it to.
