Bug#458399: jetty: Jetty depends on a java 1.5 package

[marcel]

Package: jetty
Version: 5.1.14-1
Severity: important

The JspServlet contained in libtomcat5.5-java is compiled with Java 1.5 (class version 49.0)
which will not run on a java 1.4 runtime which should be enough to run Jetty.
The error in the jetty out.log is:

java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
