Yup. I hear you can patch your glibc on Linux, but I went with Windows
for 1.2. Except I decided to be clever and install all versions on
there and that screwed things up for some reason (1.6 was being too
smart). Seems to work now though, so I can wince and do a build on
Windows.
The install process puts a copy of java.exe (and javaw.exe) in
windows\system32 which can appear earlier in the classpath than your
desired Java directory ...

I find it useful to define variables for each of the installed Javas(eg):
JAVA142_HOME=C:\j2sdk1.4.2_13
JAVA150_HOME=C:\jdk1.5.0_11
JAVA160_HOME=C:\jdk1.6.0
I can then define JAVA_HOME as one of those, and add JAVA_HOME\bin to the path.
I've got some JAVAxxx.CMD files that I use in DOS boxes to set the
appropriate version - you're welcome to a copy, just let me know.
