I haven't investigated the build process in detail, but there is a
dependency on icedtea-web, and
the class files are mostly identical to those in some icedtea-web
version, except for
jmol-14.0.11-1.fc21.noarch and jspecview-2-7.1464svn.fc21.noarch,
which differ in the
sun.applet.PluginAppletViewer class (so we currently do not provide
matching source code, I think).

(I found this while checking for references to sun.misc.Ref, which
will be removed in OpenJDK 9.
Coincidentally, icedtea-web has already been fixed.)

Och,. this scares me!

Maybe better is to ask jmoll developers - as we have been cooperating
with them long ago when itw was started to be developed....

The upstream spec file was last changed in 2003, so it seems it's a Fedora packaging issue.

Susi, could you please comment?
