Yesterday I investigated upgrading java-asm to version 6.0.
It pulls in bnd as a dependency. I've not yet checked if we have a new
dependecy cycle here...
Currently I cannot compile java-aqute-bndlib,
because java-classpathx-servletapi-3.0 does not work with java8.
This is a known incompatibility between java7 and java8 definition of Map,
affecting multiple projects.
I will focus on fixing that for now, and file a bug upstream.
