Probably safest.  Things get placed there because we absolutely need

Ah, ok, I see what's happening.  Ok, here's the situation.  The base 
JVM  on the Sun platform has the  org.omg.*  classes used for CORBA 
resident on the bootclasspath.  The endorsed.dirs settings is the 
JVM-defined way to override certain packages resident in the JVM and 
replace them with a vendor-supplied set of packages.  The org.omg.* 
classes are specifically mentioned as classes for which this is 
supported.
For Yoko's case, the Sun-provided org.omg classes do not actually 
conform to the CORBA defined signatures for a few of the classes, so 
it is necessary to override the JDK-provided set by either adding 
them to endorsed.dirs or prepending the jars to the bootstrap classpath.


Well, from the list above, it's obvious that the IBM JDK is also 
doing this.  Note that two of the jars in the list above are 
"ibmorb.jar" and "ibmorbapi.jar", which are obviously not compatible 
with what Yoko is expecting to see.
So, to net it out, I'd say that for Sun JDKs, it doesn't matter which 
directory comes first in the endorsed.jars list, while for the IBM 
JDK, it quite clearly does matter which comes first.  In order for 
the yoko ORB to function correctly it must be ahead of the IBM orb 
implementation in the search order.

For the yoko code, I'm not sure it matters.  The classes the yoko 
code overrides is contained in the base JVM, not in jar files
