I certainly don't want to break any conventions by trying to introduce a task
that doesn't work on all of the target JDK versions. If there is a way to do
that, I'm open to whatever you guys suggest. For now, I have built from CVS
HEAD and also created a separate jar that contains my task. I have a web page
where people can find out about the hotswap task and download the jar file.
I'll send that link out later once I've finished some more testing.

BTW, I couldn't find the patch.xml because that isn't included with the 1.6.1
source release. I pulled from CVS last night and the patch.xml was there.
