well, 7 and 8 are basically the same codebase, they release at the same
time, we maintain changes between them with merges, etc...the only real
difference is a thin layer supporting servlet 3.0 but the deployment
mechanism are effectively the same, or they should be.

open up a bug at bugs.eclipse.org under RT/Jetty project and we can take a
look
