The wholeimageio, cairo and gui-branch was merged into trunk (which will
become 4.0) last week. So, the short answer is "all of it". It isn't
clear whether FC4 will include cairo though. So you might have to do
without -Dgnu.java.awt.peer.gtk.Graphics=Graphics2D. It is off by
default, and needs to be explicitly enabled by configuring gcc with
--enable-gtk-cairo, which is currently not done for the FC4 pre-releases
of gcc that I have seen. (Most things work fine without it, just
Graphics2D support isn't there then.)

Cheers,
