The autosave feature [3378] by Jiri introduced Java 6 functions.

So
https://josm.openstreetmap.de/download/josm-snapshot-3377.jar
is the last nightly build that runs with jvm 5.

I guess we also need a message box for Java 5 users trying to run JOSM 
 >= 3378. Currently it shows only the generic "This is always a coding 
error"-Box.
