no, I haven't tried yet. I just started build with JAVA_HOME pointing to 1.5
and getting an error like:
Buildfile: build.xml
init-tasks:
Compiling 2 source files to /home/cgaffga/data/cocoon-2.1.4/tools/anttasks
javac: source release 1.4 requires target release 1.4
BUILD FAILED
/home/cgaffga/data/cocoon-2.1.4/tools/targets/init-build.xml:132: Compile
failed; see the compiler error output for details.


So I had a look at init-build.xml, but couldn't figure out what went wrong.
But for seems that it has something to do with changed  -target param in
javac.

As soon as I have some time, I will try with JRE 1.4 nad javac from 1.5
