Since we're not gaining by breaking compatibility in this case, I'd
first like to experiment / investigate the possibility of having a build
that allows the smart proxy's and existing Service API to be compiled
with target=1.4 and the rest of the build compiled with target=6.
After investigating the possibility of a solution, we can vote on the
issue then if you still feel strongly about it.
I was hoping someone already knew of a solution.

Why don't we just worry about creating a working River, and let the
compatibility issues be solved by the market? Most deployments are
done within the boundaries of a single organization. They should have
done this incompatible upgrade multiple times, it not something that
is unique to a river upgrade. Most bigger organizations will have
their own software-library, and establish their own software baselines
by cloning our vcs.
