When compiling applets using JDK 1.1, they work fine in
Appletviewer, but crash in Internet Explorer 3.02.

Since IE3 seems to be only JDK 1.0 compliant, I tried to port
my applets back to that version, but the documentation
doesn't say which classes & methods are from 1.1 and
which are from 1.0, so I have to use trial and error to
see which ones cause IE to crash.  Very tedious.

It would be nice to have the @since javadoc tag extended
down to methods & class variables so I can tell before I use
them whether they are likely to cause problems.
