Surely that's graal's problem to solve.
This is a standard system property, it is an error if it is not set correctly.
Also sun.awt.config is not a supported documented property. It was put there 
for debugging. 
If user code is relying on that (I'm not sure if that is being implied) then it 
is on shaky ground.
We could remove that at any time without notice.
