Ahh - gotcha.  Wouldn't this be a backwards compatability issue with the
JDK?  I thought Sun took those seriously (or is that only for the JVM
itself)?

Also as an aside, for some reason update-alternatives for javac was
insufficient.  I have a feeling that ant looks at the java that it was run
with to find the path to javac instead of looking at the javac on the path,
so I also had to do an update-alternatives for java.
