At this point this would be expected. We don’t actually have org.apache.log4j.FileAppender in log4j-1.2-api. We map it to org.apache.logging.log4j.core.appender.FileAppender.
I am a little surprised though as it looks like Gary added the Log4j 1.2 FileAppender to log4j-1.2-api but he didn’t remove the builder. If he had it would have created org.apache.log4j.FileAppender as you want. That said, may I ask why you need access to the FileAppender? I’m just wondering if Log4j 2 already has what you are looking for implemented.
