I don't know much about those tools, but it wouldn't seem feasible to supply
1.5 compatible libraries (otherwise the stupid classpath project would have
been abandoned long ago).

I think the bug fixing that has gone into 1.5 libraries is just as important
as the language changes.

That's an interesting option Steven... Retrotranslator certainly looks like
they handle almost everything!

If we ended up taking that route, we have enough 1.4 users that I think it
would be nice to have
  - a 1.4 compatible jar included in the distributions along with the 1.5
jar
  - an easy way to run all the unit tests against the 1.4 compatible jar
