I believe Accumulo enforces api compat using a tool that examines .class files. (either a decompiler or javap).  We also have some in progress tools we've been using internally for CDH (blog post coming).

I think we could do also augment it with logic taking advantage of our Public/Private Evolving/Stable API annotations.

> We've had a few issues now where we've removed API's without deprecating or deprecating in the late release.  (HBASE-9142, HBASE-9093)  We should just have a tool that enforces our api deprecation policy as a release time check or as a precommit check.
