Log4j and log4cxx are distinct code bases written in different languages. I oppose any artificial attempts to make Java code mimic C++ particularities, idiosyncrasies, deficiencies or a combination thereof.

Having nearly identical tests (when the structure of the code is similar enough to allow that) makes it much easier to make sure that log4j and log4cxx behave similarly under the same conditions.
Sometimes the resulting log4j tests are testing behavior that you could take for granted (like java.io.Writer's encoding support) and would appear to be overkill for log4j's needs. However, the implementation may be much more shaky in log4cxx and having similar tests in both log4j and log4cxx makes it easier to ensure that they behave similarly.
