You're right: pure Java programs, or at least Java-based projects
entirely built against Sun's API, are valid candidates for running
effortlessly on Intel-based Macs—even if some exceptions require some
additional steps (JNI…)
However, Cocoa-Java builds don't belong to this family: I presume that
at least their executable "wrapper" to .jar classfile is qualified for
going through some sort of Universal Binary-sation…
