I've never heard of jet, but:

1. Where did they get the source code for the Java standard library?

    - I doubt that Sun would license theirs (they're pretty strongly
      anti-static-compilation)

They are not anti-static-compilation, they are just against solutions that don't
implements ALL of the java platform, including its dynamic features (ClassLoader).
reading Jet home page:

- "Mixed Compilation Model ensures complete support for Java dynamic features."

Makes you think that they have a Static+JIT (or interpreter) model like GCJ
which fully implements the java model - so no problem including Sun classes.
