Solution to defect 18875 breaks other projects

>From defect 18875:
Solution: Remove the static fields Priority.DEBUG through Priority.FATAL

I think this would break a lot of projects dependend on log4j. Wouldn't it be more wise to
deprecate the static fields or changed into "public static final Level WARN = Level.WARN"
(could cause inheritance problems)? 

It immediately breaks the Log4JLogger from commons-logging and would probably mean a more
difficult migration when switching from 1.2.8 to 1.3.

TIA,
Michael
