AIUI, all that is becoming GPL as of today is javac and JavaHelp (and
given Sun's record of rather cavalier use of terms like "open source",
I'd be inclined to inspect this particular gift-horse's teeth very

Java SE (standard edition) comprises a compiler, library, java doc, vm
etc., I would speculate. That's what is in the download.
