Thanks for doing this.  I'm certainly interested in a version of jtreg
that doesn't
depend on half the Java universe.

Well my guess would be that the changes from proprietary JDK to
OpenJDK invalidate
a lot of these tests.  The crypto failures I guess will be looking for
an algorithm that's not
in the crypto that was finally released.   Likewise, I guess the
colour profiles will have
changed, invalidating these test.  JMX SNMP and javax.script are
obvious failures because
the first is stubbed and no implementation of the second is included in OpenJDK.

In summary, in most cases it's the tests that need fixing. Certainly
the sfbay ones need
changing to an external address, preferably something that can shake
off a heavy load ;)

I'd be interested to see the results -- do all Mauve tests now pass for IcedTea?

Hopefully in separate packages so the core can be installed without
the ant, etc.
stuff.
