Actually, the changes between Java 1.0.2 and 1.1 were even more 
substantial. :-( But that is not really the main problem - if a modern 
Java environment for RISC OS provided a substantial benefit such a 
thing could be produced. The problem is that it would not be of much 
use due to lack of processing power.
