1. "OpenJPA 2.0 requires JDK 6 compiler to build and JRE 6 runtime" -- that
sounds reasonable. I think we should move to that position and
streamline/simplify build for OpenJPA 2.0 branch.

2. "OpenJPA 1.2.x requires JDK 5 compiler to build and JRE 5 runtime. Will
not run on JRE 6" -- that is a fact. right?

3. 1.3.x is tricky. As soon as consider a version running in *both* JRE 5
and 6 --we run into JDBC 4 related issues. We do have a solution in terms of
dynamic code generation -- but it is not an easy configuration to maintain
and work (as Kevin mentions his experience)
