I develop JPython on Solaris using 1.2 and it works fine for me.  I'm
not sure what issues you're concerned with.  It'll certainly work with
all the standard 1.2 Java packages, and there are a few other features
of JPython that are only available when using Java 1.2 (since they
can't be implemented onto of 1.1).
