> Using java.util.logging has two related problems.
> One is that virtually no java project in the wild uses it.  Everyone uses the more advanced log4j.
> Two is that unlike log4j, java.util.logging does not warn you when it is swallowing errors because it has not been configured.
> So thrift exceptions vanish without a trace which is bad.
> Here is a patch to switch to log4j.
