------------------------------------
Mike - you 'almost' fixed it :)
I "ant clean test-tag" and still sees failures. So I checked and
common-build.xml still references lucene_2_4_back_compat_tests_20090320. I do
see your changes on the lucene_2_4_back_compat_tests branch, but you didn't tag
those changes?
We can either move to checkout this code from the branch (thus preventing such
issues in the future), in build.xml target=download-tag, or tag the changes and
update common-build.xml.

> We now test back-compat with "ant test-tag", which is very useful for
> catching breaks in back compat before committing.
> However, that currently checks out "src/test" sources and then
> compiles them against the trunk JAR, and runs the tests. Whereas our
> back compat policy:
> http://wiki.apache.org/lucene-java/BackwardsCompatibility
> states that no recompilation is required on upgrading to a new JAR.
> Ie you should be able to drop in the new JAR in place of your old one
> and things should work fine.
> So... we should fix "ant test-tag" to:
> * Do full checkout of core sources & tests from the back-compat-tag
> * Compile the JAR from the back-compat sources
> * Compile the tests against that back-compat JAR
> * Swap in the trunk JAR
> * Run the tests
