Hi Gary

The OSGi tests got broken by my moving classes around and migration from
Commons Logging to Log4j2. While the former is trivial to fix, so far I
was unable to fix the latter. Essentially the embedded OSGi container
used by the tests needs to be switched from slf4j/logback to log4j2 or
log4j2 dependency should be imported directly by the tests (or likely
both), which should be possible but I have no idea how to do so. 

Realistically we do not have anyone on the project both willing and
capable of maintaining those tests.

I'll give it another try later today and if I fail I'll seriously
consider removing OSGi tests unless some gallant knight in shining armor
comes to our rescue and fixes the damn tests. 

Oleg
