In the sun testsuite runs there are random appearances of replication
errors, e.g. org.jboss.test.cluster.test.FieldBasedTestCase, or
ScopedFieldBasedTestCase, or DeprecAnnocFieldBasedTestCase.
I don't see any of those error on the JRockit run, that is done in a
more isolated environment, so I don't know if there is something more to
it.

These are failures on tests of asynchronous replication. With async the
test client doesn't know how long it will take for a session to
replicate, so it sleeps 300ms before switching from one server to the
other. There are hundreds of these switches made in the course of a
testsuite run. If there's some hiccup during a replication (e.g. a bit
longer than normal gc run delays it), the test client can switch before
the replicated state arrives and you get a transient failure.
I bumped the sleep time a bit (and made it configurable via a system
property.)
