Is the problem that javac isn't using the right version or that calling
from RPG isn't using the right version?  If it's RPG, then it's only the
java.version property that is ignored in the SystemDefault.properties
file.  You should do what Ashish suggested and use the
QIBM_RPG_JAVA_PROPERTIES environment variable set to
'-Djava.version=1.4;'
