Conor, thanks much for noticing this problem. I've got a patch which
works with autoconf (for *nix), and changes gen_win.py to spit out a
similar configuration.

Paul Burba mentioned he might be able to test out the Windows patch,
but if you're able to teake it for a test-drive, that'd be great, too.

[[[
JavaHL: Compile Java bytecode for the target platform of a Java 1.2
JVM. The default is typically equal to the compiling JDK version, or
the value for the -source flag to javac (if lower). Assume our Java
source code is JDK 1.2-compatible (as mentioned in
subversion/bindings/java/javahl/README).

* configure.in
  (JAVA_OLDEST_WORKING_VER): Set the minimum Java version to 1.2.
  (SVN_CHECK_JDK): Pass in new JAVA_OLDEST_WORKING_VER parameter.

* build/ac-macros/java.m4
  (SVN_CHECK_JDK): Accept new JAVA_OLDEST_WORKING_VER parameter. Pass
   it on to SVN_FIND_JDK.
  (SVN_FIND_JDK): Accept new JAVA_OLDEST_WORKING_VER parameter. In
   JAVAC_FLAGS, set -target to this value, and -source to 1.2.
  
* build/generator/gen_win.py
  (WinGeneratorBase.get_proj_sources): When compiling Java bytecode,
   specify -target and -source as 1.2. This is hard-coded for now,
   but -target could later be made a configuration option in the
   "[options]" section of build.conf.
