Update Source Folders changes project JDK incorrectly when using Java 6.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: MNGECLIPSE-133
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNGECLIPSE-133
     Project: Maven 2.x Extension for Eclipse
        Type: Bug

  Components: Dependency Resolver  
    Versions: 0.0.9    
 Environment: Windows XP SP2; JDK 1.6.0-beta2-b86; Eclipse 3.1.2;
    Reporter: Mark Soderquist
 Assigned to: Eugene Kuleshov 
    Priority: Minor


I believe this is something that Sun has done to you just recently with JDK 1.6 
build 85 or 86 (I'm not sure which since I jumped from 84 to 86.) According to 
the javac 
documentation(http://download.java.net/jdk6/docs/technotes/tools/windows/javac.html#source)
 the -source values of 1.6 and 6 are not valid since no language changes 
occurred in Java 6. Changing the JDK in the Eclipse project based on the source 
value in the POM file may not work from now on. According to the documentation 
the target flag still allows the 1.6 value but running javac with -source 1.5 
and -target 1.6 give an "invalid target release: 1.6" error.
