I guess my question is, are you thinking of adding/using some jdk 1.4
specific code, Luis?  If yes, then that code should probably "optionally"
compilable, similar to how the jms, etc code is in today's build script.

As a side note, if I were to add some jdk 1.4 specific code to log4j, it
would be a java.nio implementation of the socket related classes.  It would
be nice if SocketAppender/SocketHubAppender/SocketNode could change their
behavior based on what jdk is detected at runtime, but that would require
jdk 1.4 to compile.
