Message:

As we are making use of javac's -source and -target in Greenstone to allow for backwards compatability, then to do this properly we should also be making use of -bootclasspath and more carefully control the rt.jar file that is specified. rt.jar can actually be quite large (~50 MBytes), and so even though it is fairly straightforward to add in the Zulu OpenJDK rt.jar in (as rt-openjdk6.jar) this file has not been committed into the subversion repository, and instead uses an if-statement to test if it exists or not before adding in the -botclasspath argument
