On irc you had an example showing that this is what Sun's AWT does
under the hood.

I think it would be fine to have some `gnu.classpath.whatever'
property that VMs are encouraged to set.  My impression is that AWT
will work even if you don't set this, it just might not be as friendly
in some situations.
