3.2b6 build fails ?!?!

Er, sorry this is probably a stupid question, but why is this not working
for me?

[jakarta-tomcat]$ ./build.sh 
Buildfile: build.xml

init:

prepare:
  [copydir] Copying 5 files to /home/nick/apache_1.3.14/build/tomcat/bin

tomcat:

Because you cannot build and run Tomcat 3.2b6 with JDK 1.1.x, you must use JDK 1.2/1.3 or change line 335 in ContextManager.java from

System.setProperty("tomcat.sessionid.randomclass", randomClass);

to

System.getProperties().put("tomcat.sessionid.randomclass", randomClass);
