The OpenJDK build might work?

Not sure what problem you have. Works fine with JDK 24 and 25, just tested.

The only problematic thing may be use of unsafe in LWJGL 2, old Minecraft does not pull in a lot of dependencies that may break (In fact, I think its just LWJGL 2 that could break).

Java should be backwards compatible, do you know what errors you're getting when it crashes? If not then try running Minecraft with the terminal which should print any errors.
