Agreed. I think those that are reliant on GCJ should plan on
expending the effort to do whatever backporting is needed to make
Lucene work on it. It should also be a GCJ branch or version. Seems
silly to support 1.5 and not do it this way.

Seems potentially a little strange to me. Does this mean Lucene
would be
limited to the set of 1.5 features actually implemented by GCJ? So if
there is a 1.5 feature that is not supported by GCJ (while others are)
it cannot be used?
Seems more natural to support the complete 1.5 as defined by Sun/Java,
not the subset implemented by one open source compiler.
