msgfmt --java2 compatibility bug

There is no option in gettext to specify java target version.
If gettext bundle is compiled with Java 1.6 and then
run on 1.5 program crashes.

(Both 1.5 and 1.6 are supported versions nowadays).
Unfortunately linux maintainers commonly compile
using 1.6 causing java programs using gettext crash.

Solution would be to allow msgfmt to specify java
compiler options or to set 'javac -target 1.5' option.
