Tomcat 5.0.29 cannot compile JSPs when run with Java 5

           Summary: Tomcat 5.0.29 cannot compile JSPs when run with Java 5
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: 5.0.29
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Jasper
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: jessh@ptc.com


Tomcat 5.0.28 ran fine under Java 5, including compilation of JSP pages.

Tomcat 5.0.29 runs fine under Java 5 *except* that it cannot compile JSP pages.

The issue is that Tomcat 5.0.29 sets the 'target' JVM version to 1.3, but does
not set the option for Java source version.  The javac in JDK 1.5 defaults this
to 1.5 -- and throws a fatal error given -target 1.3 and no -source specified
(or -source 1.5, for that matter).

This is a substantial regression.
