I had this same problem.  About 900 of the classes in my app were calling
the old logging system.  That added up to a few thousand log calls to
change, plus constructors, etc.

I wrote a Perl program to search through the app for classes that
called our existing logger and switch the logging calls over to Log4j.
I could just as well have written it in Java, but for my money Perl is
the tool of choice for small, text-munging tasks like this.

If changing your code programatically looks like an option for you,
then we can discuss it further.  I can go into some of the pitfalls,
etc.
