I haven't done any experiments but I think we need to find out if there are any 
actively used drivers that are java 5 or earlier (and don't implement the java 
6 jdbc changes) and what happens if you try to use them in java 6.  If either 
there are no such drivers or java 5 drivers work fine with a java 6 wrapper 
then this ought to be reasonably safe.
