I've seen reports that Gnome/Sawfish is a big problem for Sun's
JDK.  I've also seen reports that Enlightenment has some issues
also regarding properly placing and sizing windows.  

I haven't seen any problems using FVWM. 

I'm guessing the various development groups code and test only on
their one favorite window manager, so the resulting JVM misbehaves
on some others.

No matter what we think of Linux versus FreeBSD, etc., the one thing I
really like about Linux is that it has Microsoft worried.  Anything
that kicks a monopoly in the pants has got to be good for something.
