Re: Testing CruiseControl against JDK 8 EA builds

FYI - I just committed some changes to upgrade XStream (and one of its dependencies,
XPP3) to the latest release.  That turned out to be the only change needed to fix
the build with JDK 7.  (I also verified that we still build successfully with JDK 5
and JDK 6, too)

Since that went so smoothly I'm going to go ahead and give JDK 8 a try.

Thanks, if I encounter any JDK 7 issues I'll let you know.  At the moment,
I believe all of the issues involved in building CruiseControl with JDK 7
are actually related to old versions of libraries we still rely on.  For
example, we need to upgrade to a newer XStream because v1.2.2 doesn't
correctly detect Java 7.
