I'm not aware of the issue. I just tried building with JDK 1.3.1_18 (from Sun) and maven1 with the source/target options set to 1.3. Once I followed the instructions for "dependency.jdbc" and ran with the "-Dmaven.test.skip=true" the only problems I had were with the checkstyle and findbugs plugins which were created with later JDK versions - commenting those out and it built fine. Seems though that the maven1 build for Commons Configuration has so many JDK 1.3 gotchas that having the source/target options set and building with JDK 1.4+ would be the best option for anyone else wanting to build from source.
