If other languages are compiled to Java byte codes, how does that affect the applet security model?

The verifier is independent of Sun?s reference implementation of the Java compiler and the high-level specification of the Java language. It verifies byte codes generated by other Java compilers. It also verifies byte codes generated by compiling other languages into the byte code format. Byte codes imported over the net that pass the verifier can be trusted to run on the Java virtual machine. In order to pass the verifier, byte codes have to conform to the strict typing, the object signatures, the class file format, and the predictability of the run time stack that are all defined by the Java language implementation.
