J2SE 1.4 Solaris window always on top

I've found some ways to have a window in Windows be always on top
through JNI, but I am looking to have an app have the windows always
on top under Solaris. I'm running JDK 1.4, and no, I can't upgrade to
1.5 due to other applications.

Web start can be used to ensure correct
JRE versioning for each application.
OTOH, why will these 1.4 apps. /not/
run under 1.5?

This is not by choice. It would be for multiple machines which have a
controlled software image that is loaded onto them. Basically its some
older, legacy systems that take forever to update and right now they
have some version of 1.4 (as far as I know) on them. I wish I could go
1.5, but its not going to happen :(
