The build failure you quote below is the reason that I'm using the 1.4.2 
libraries here.  Eclipse does part of the build using their 
JDTCompilerAdapter, which only supports Java 1.4.  Apparently Java 1.5 
allows subclasses to refine a method's return type, and this feature is 
used withing the core libraries.  JDTCompilerAdapter fails to compile 
FeatureWriter because of this.

Until Eclipse supports native 1.5 builds, I'm not sure that there's 
anything we can do to improve things.

Whoops.  I'll correct that as soon as I get a chance.

Alex.
