Retrotranslator replaces "extends java.lang.Annotation" with "extends net.sf.retrotranslator.runtime.java.lang.Annotation_", "java.lang.Class.getAnnotation" with "net.sf.retrotranslator.runtime.java.lang._Class.getAnnotation", and so on. So application developers do not have to be aware of Retrotranslator: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/retrotranslator/Retrotranslator/test/net/sf/retrotranslator/runtime/java/lang/_ClassTestCase.java?view=markup
The only drawback here is that translated code may be incompatible with libraries using Java 5 API directly (mainly because annotations do not extend java.lang.Annotation after translation). So you would have to distribute separate jars for 1.4 and 5.0 platform.
