    The "-target" flag doesn't do what you think it does. What you actually
    need to do is download a 1.1 version of Java, and compile with that.
    There was another thread recently that got into what those flags really
    do; if you're interested, have Google look for "-target" and "-source"
    in recent threads (last couple weeks at most) from comp.lang.java.*.
