What about FireFox?
It works with JFW, but it is not easy to use since its not too good with 
tabbing, but it works with the Jaws cursor, if one can tolerate that.

For an accessible web browser that works under Xwindows, you
might want to look at Freedombox.  It uses Mozilla for web
browsing.  I've used it under Linux and it works pretty
well.  Their web site is http://www.freedombox.info or
http://linux.freedombox.info.
