The Java Preferences setting for applications also controls double-clicked
jars.

This would be a really bad idea on any Intel-based Mac. The 1.3.1 JVM only
has PowerPC code, so is always emulated by Rosetta.
Before blithely changing one's system-wide default JVM to 1.3.1, I strongly
recommend testing it first, using a shell command alias, or by executing
the 1.3 'java' command directly:
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.3/Commands/java
Confirm it's being emulated by using Activity Monitor to display the "Kind"
column. Then evaluate the speed and memory consumption of the emulated 1.3
JVM before making an unsupported global change.
