Example:
JDK 1.3 has: public synchronized StringBuffer append(Object obj)
JDK 1.4 adds: public synchronized StringBuffer append(StringBuffer sb)
The following code:
sb.append(new StringBuffer("Foo"));
works in JDK 1.4 when compiled by JDK 1.3 or JDK 1.4, but will NOT work in
JDK 1.3 if compiled with JDK 1.4. See the problem?

James releases are compiled with IBM JDK 1.3.1, so at least our compiled
code should be good, but I don't know that we're doing enough to test
pre-compiled dependencies. Normally I use JDK 1.4.2 to run the code, but I
can do testing with IBM JDK 1.3.1. I don't know what Tomcat does.
