The only convention I have seen is for "non-standard" headers to be prefixed
with "X-" to emphasize the fact that they are made-up things (and also to
avoid any possibility of a clash with a later standardized name).  So,
perhaps using "X-Compile-Source-JDK" an "X-Compile-Target-JDK" might be
better.
