The other platform with JDK 1.1 is Internet Explorer with Microsoft's JVM (JDK 1.1.8).

Also I believe that most Open Source JVM's are only 1.1.

But isn't this something that can be handled with a switch? We could have (or is there already and I haven't noticed) a target language switch like javac's -target for this sort of thing.
