I've just tried a build on Win/XP, Java 1.6.0.

This reports quite a few compilation warnings, for example:

    [javac] wtk\src\pivot\wtk\content\TreeViewFileRenderer.java:34:
warning: sun.awt.shell.ShellFolder
 is Sun proprietary API and may be removed in a future release
    [javac] import sun.awt.shell.ShellFolder;
    [javac]                     ^
    [javac] wtk\src\pivot\wtk\content\TreeViewFileRenderer.java:89:
warning: sun.awt.shell.ShellFolder
 is Sun proprietary API and may be removed in a future release
    [javac]         ShellFolder shellFolder =3D null;
    [javac]         ^
    [javac] wtk\src\pivot\wtk\content\TreeViewFileRenderer.java:91:
warning: sun.awt.shell.ShellFolder
 is Sun proprietary API and may be removed in a future release
    [javac]             shellFolder =3D ShellFolder.getShellFolder(file);
    [javac]                           ^
    [javac] 3 warnings

Does Pivot only work on Sun JVMs?

    [javac] core-test\src\pivot\core\test\PropertiesSerializerTest.java:37:
warning: unmappable character for encoding Cp1252
    [javac]         testMap.put("i18n",    "=E2=94=AC=C3=87 & =C3=8E?=C3=8E=
=C3=BF=C3=8E=C2=A3=C3=8E=C3=B3=C3=8E=C2=AE");  //
test some chars to encode ...
    [javac]                                       ^
    [javac] 1 warning

Also, the build file does not seem to run any tests, it only compiles them.
