Please remain compatible with 1.1.  There are a number of environments
(like where the ant code is hosted, for example) for which a 1.2 is not
available yet.  I've yet to see a major jakarta or xml project forsake 1.1
compatibility yet, and I don't believe that we should start with the build
tool.

Not a problem, that's why I was checking.  I will rewrite code to use
1.1.  Shouldn't be too hard since I don't use remove in Iterators I
can just use Enumeration and HashTable works as well aas HashSet.
