?? It is untrue that java.home is set on vm start and immutable.

e.g.

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    System.out.println(System.getProperty("java.home"));
    System.setProperty("java.home", "anything I want it to be");
    System.out.println(System.getProperty("java.home"));
  }

produces:

  C:\java\IBM JDK 5.0\SR3\jre
  anything I want it to be
