Matej, feel free to clone this bug to rawhide if you're worried about
the future releases/downstream products. The fact is, that this is
completely broken in *production* version, which is more severe issue
than unreleased development tree.
Second fact is, that this prevents using some services, which is not a
minor visual hickup and could be ignored.

As for http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml not working --
that is a problem in the applet. The applet appears to be trying to do
something like charAt(8) on the name/version string of the vm, which
fails because IcedTea does not follow the exact same convention as Sun

Jayson, try some other page with applet, that Sun's page is broken -
which is very logical when you're trying to test compatibility. Tells
quite a bit about that company.
For me it fails too but other applets elsewhere start.

http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml is not fixed by the new rpms, but the originally reported site (http://online3.typingmaster.com/tmonline3/login?id=unp5pb2f9) is.
http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml does not work due to a
presumption by the applet that the jvm version string will be in format
A.B.C_XY .. which is true for the Sun JVM, but not for IcedTea (the
openjdk in Fedora). I have sent an email to the community requesting
that we do the same with the IcedTea reported version. Once that is
addressed, the applet should start working. The e-mail I sent is here:

Their new plugin so is named libnpjp2.so. libjavaplugin_oji.so will not
work for 64-bit.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora
'version' of '11'.
Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life.
Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this
bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version,
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.
Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.
The process we are following is described here:
