You know, it's interesting you say you support compatibility with 1.3...

You're aware that the distribution JAR is compiled with -target 1.5, right?
So everyone not running JDK 1.5 has to recompile the jar file in order to
deploy, making it a little harder to verify that the xmlsec.jar file is
authentic.

I discovered this myself while trying to re-verify our code.  I have to
support 1.4, which means I can't guarantee all of my libraries (we had to
recompile to get a workable jar).  On anything else, I probably wouldn't
care, but this is sort of critical.
