I tested a handful of JDKs I had locally.  On my linux box, Forrest runs
on Sun JDKs 1.4.1, 1.3.1, 1.3.0 and probably 1.2.0 (if it didn't run out
of mem).  It dies with FOP-related errors in IBM's 1.3.1.

I had checked in some jars built on 1.4, but now it /should/ be fixed...

I don't think its getting that far.  I check it out... I run the build.. 
 It crokes.  BTW the primer lies...there is no "clean" target".. .  all 
targets including dist just do the same thing

Possibly Forrest was built on JDK 1.4?  I've occasionally had
NoSuchMethodErrors when running 1.4-built code on 1.3.

Its balking on the Node.hadAttributes() method.  It has to be a 
classpath thing...
