1. set in the make-flags like this:
-Dant.build.javac.source=1.7
-Dant.build.javac.target=1.7
this did not work, but complained that the source is 1.7 and no bootstrap
classpath is set, so I guess that these properties are considered.

2. patched the build.xml:
substituted
<javac  srcdir="${source.java}"
with
<javac  srcdir="${source.java}" soruce="1.7" target="1.7"
same result as above.

This is the only package that right now does not work on java8.
All others build.

I still have the issue with the java-simple-xml test failing, I've
temporarily disabled tests.

These are the only two remaining.
