Yeah, I've seen this too, and despise it. It seems common only in
commercial closed source applications where companies can't or won't
commit resources to test or maintain against platform changes. This is
true for any platform. Plenty of Windows applications included their
own versions of critical DLLs. Smaller than a JRE of course. ;-)

Anyway, one can use their poison of choice in coding PC-side software
for a poor-man's Catweasel, or super-SVD. I hope we get the chance to
do so.

Cheers,
Nick.
