No.  The problem is that the stack trace pattern in the witness files does
not match what is generated in jdk 1.4 (and I imagine 1.5).  This is around
what is in the stack trace related to using reflection.  We can modify the
witness files to match the 1.4 sun jdk output and run the tests that way.
We cannot easily support witness files that work under both pre-jdk 1.4 and
jdk 1.4 and beyond.

This is (I assume) not a problem in the current cvs head as Ceki added code
to alleviate the issue with the reflection stack trace and what gets output.
That code is not in the 1.2 branch.  I plan to make the ability to run the
tests under different jdk's a larger priority for the 1.3 release.  If we
are saying that we are 1.2 compatible, we should be able to prove that in
the unit tests.
