JDK 1.4 compatibility

Dear httpunit community members,

while working with Patch  1518901 the issue of JDK 1.4 
compatibility came up.

Currently I decided to put the patch into the code but 
comment it out like this:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1518901&group_id=6550&atid=306550
            // [ 1518901 ] enable http connect and read timeouts (needs JDK 1.5)
            // comment out if you need this and have JDK 1.5
            // if (_connectTimeout>=0) connection.setConnectTimeout( _connectTimeout );
            // if (_readTimeout>=0)    connection.setReadTimeout( _readTimeout );            


I'd suggest that we create a 1.6.x version as the latest 
JDK 1.4 supporting release with all the patches from 
sourceforge being brought in and that everything from 
2008 on will be JDK 1.5 and there will be 1.7 release 
for that then. 

What do you think?
