It would be quite unfortunate if you were forced to re-implement 
logback-classic.

Will do.

Looking at your recipe for reproducing the problem, I noticed that the 
logback-core bundle imports org.slf4j. Given that the logback-core module does 
NOT depend at all on SLF4J, I find the import highly suspicious.

> When working with Logback as OSGi bundles I found some issues regarding
