What classes are you referring to? What version?

I did a quick check and i cannot find any code in the latest source,
1.0.3-SNAPSHOT, that depends on com.sun.* classes from the JDK.

IIRC there was a time when the JSR 311 jar had a dependency on some
internal com.sun.* classes of the JDK but we removed that dependency a
while ago.
