I thought you meant it to be a way for the VM to select which AWT
implementation to select. And if that is the case then I would like to
see one level of indirection (either a System property or a VM method)
to select the desired Toolkit class. If Classpath actually had multiple
implementations this could be a way to select one during configure time
if we wanted that. Currently only specific VMs might have different AWT
implementations and in that case I don't think adding this to
Configure.java.in is a good idea.

Cheers,

Mark
