So, it is good to run Disk Utility repair permissions after the items replacement indicated in the fixing procedure above.
That's not surprising. Files from a different system, different permissions. I remember trying something similar 3+ years ago with replacing java files from the alternate startup drive but can't remember if it fixed the issue or not (maybe not, maybe not the same files). I simply remember one day I realised the problem seemingly vanished out of the blue when I tried to use LW5 or a LW5 based program. I'd been using LW 4.16 instead. (My favorite was 4.14 but couldn't find the installer when I bought this computer. Though found it much later.)

(Re-implementing one or more things from LW 4 is on the list of possible things to do, but no promises it will happen.)
