Done.
There is a warning in Eclipse if people execute single tests or suites, since a
log4j.properties file is not on the classpath.
> Turning on /off around the test or the suite is, to me, the best way. (I do
> this a lot in ARQ testing for changes to internal global switches).

It would be good to have this as a common approach throughout all the Jena code
base. But, I'll leave this as a future task. Atlas is not in the Jena classpath
and there is little advantage at the moment in changing just one single place.

> The jena jar, and perhaps others, has a log4j.properties on behalf of the
> commands. A little classpath confusion can end up with this at the head of

> It would be more better, if you ask me, for the commands to use the -D for
> log4j to ask for a different file name, and leave *that* in the jar.
