    Description

      For maximum compatibility in the *default* case, javac in Tiger (1.5)
      should have the default for -source (language version) set to 1.4.
      In short, that means assertions are enabled but none of the new
      Tiger language features are. You will still get a warning if you use
      one of the new keywords as an identifier.
