Alternatives wouldn't work without the compat package installed as the Sun RPM does not set it up. With the compat package installed and alternatives set manually, the links go into manual mode and do not change when newer JDKs are installed. That means that you can then yum update as often as you want without having the JDK links change from the Sun JDK.
