With retrotranslator you only solve language problems like

- generics
- annotations
- etc

But CXF also uses new classes introduced in Java5, existing classes got new 
methods, etc. So the bigger problem is running CXF with a Java4 library. You 
could use a project like Apache Harmony to fill this gap. But to make the 
result production ready is a lot of work.

Cheers,

Roman
