For instance, SAP's gui for java doesn't work with openjdk and requires sun's Java implementation.

Ahh, the joys of WORA! ;-)

While I agree WORA is not really true in this case I blame OpenJDK. I have a number of applications that work fine in Sun's JDK, IBM's JDK, and JRockit but not OpenJDK. Especially stuff that stresses permgen space (like J2EE portal conatiners and eclipse with a large number of plugins) seems to have problems with OpenJDK.
