i'm sending this to both users and devel lists because it involves both.

Who is using RHQ that *require* the use of Java5? If so, what platforms 
are you running RHQ on that require Java5?

What are the ramifications if we stop Java5 support and require that the 
server and agent run on at least Java6?

I currently hit an issue that, if we were to use Java6, would be done 
already.

Instead, I have to hack this up and take I don't know how long to even 
get the hack coded up.

Specifically, I'm talking about this:

java.io.File.setExecutable(boolean)
