I'm hoping this is limited to the one workstation and I'll do some
testing on our actual automated build machines.

Right that makes sense as to why it fails but I was unaware that
java.text was excluded in 1.1 and not 1.0.1 and there is no indication
of that in the FAQ. Should that be considered as part of the GUI? It has
date formats and i18n stuff which can be used outside of Swing and AWT.

I've now turned off the excluded GUI flag but now I have a 6MB exe with
1.1 instead of 2.3 MB with 1.0.1. So this really does not help in my
case as 6MB is not an acceptable size given that it is includes
AWT/Swing when we don't even use it. Download size is quite important
for this application and is one of the reasons we spent the time
converting to SWT in the first place :(
