Repeating: don't use 5.1.4 on Panther. Upgrade to 5.2.2.

We have a KBase article (#75505) showing how to "trick" WebObjects into
using a particular Java version. This technique might work with 5.2.2, but
honestly I don't think we've tried it, and we certainly don't support it.
If 5.2.2 uses any new 1.4.1 API, you're S-O-L. Also, part of the article is
Project Builder-specific, and needs to be rewritten for Xcode.
Another (heinous) solution is to segregate your 1.3.1-dependent code into
its own process, and RMI to/from your Java 1.4.1 WebObjects app.
The best solution is probably to stay on WebObjects 5.1.4 and Jaguar until
you can upgrade your 1.3.1 code. Using the KBase article (above), you can
easily switch VM's to test your upgrades.
