I'd just grab the source, build it and run the tests. WARNING: this is
so old that I don't have much experience with it...

Short form:
Check out the code, something like: svn checkout
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/java/tags/lucene_2_9_4
lucene_2_9_4
build it by going to the directory lucene_2_9_4 (or thereabouts) and
execute the target "ant test". See what happens.

But this is largely uncharted waters, so you're mostly on your own.

Best,
Erick
