[josm-dev] Patch: fixes for delete

No, it doesn't happen before Debian does it. 

Please, I've said that before, do not make changes that break the Java
5 build. I think if you have eclipse you can easily set it to Java 5
compliance on a per-project basis.

The machine running the nightly JOSM build is a Debian Etch system. If
there's reason to believe that the majority of people trying to build
JOSM are doing so with Java 6, and fail, then we might make the move
but currently I think Java 5 is still used by more people.

I'm quite angry with whoever is responsible for this to give us the
alternative of either having code that works with Java 5 or code that
works with Java 6 but not both. But I guess it was somehow necessary
in the grand scheme of things. - Is there no #ifdef JAVA5 or so? Do we
now need a "Java 6 branch"?

Bye
Frederik
