    Should I change my code to do that?

        I don't understand that original assessment.
        Switching to XAWT had no impact on this code except to make
        it pointless.
        i.e it did not prevent its execution.

        I doubt there is any code left in the JDK that will derive any
        benefit from it still being there. All CDE/Motif & Xt related
        code is gone.
        This should have been removed along with it but was doubtless not
        in plain sight to whoever did that.

        So unless I am missing something you could go further and
        just delete it.
