Can you be specific?  There are many problems with using gcj, but I've not 
heard 
of any with OpenJDK, which is almost identical to the Sun/Oracle downloads.

Chuck,

I apologize. You're right, I cannot find specific instances of OpenJDK with 
generic servlets and JSP pages.

There are some reported issues with captcha image processing and fonts, but the 
original poster should not be impacted by these. On RedHat, requiring the 
Liberation fonts via RPM fixes the font issue. I don't know how this is 
implemented in Ubuntu.

I don't know what the status is for captcha image processing. There don't 
appear 
to be any posts after late 2010 concerning this. According to one thread, the 
image processing was changed to use ImageIO in 4.2 (Jira thread), so it's no 
longer an issue there.

Again, I apologize for the extra noise, as well as the erroneous statements.
