Sorry, I answered to your mail to the Guava list before seeing this message

According to 
https://github.com/gwtproject/gwt/commit/fa29596ebe9909f3cc1c671bb42a657b25903fac,
 
2.5.0 was the first version targeting Java 6; so the last one supporting 
Java 5 would be 2.4.0.
But Java 5 reached EOL ~5½ years ago already! 
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/eol-135779.html (for public updates 
that is)
If you *really* need to use Java 5 on the server side (GWT-RPC), you could 
probably use some bytecode rewriter to make gwt-servlet.jar compatible with 
Java 5 (with a bit of luck, Retrolambda might work); and use a more recent 
version of Java for development (Retrolambda requires Java 8, FWIW).
