While compiling the code I got a lot of errors, like package not found
(due to classpatch indeed), but also some method API problems.
While investigating I saw you seemed to have a different API
for it (the common-logging), so I changed it directly into a recent
version of the log4j.

I did not follow log4j that close, but if I understand it well
it as become a more 'stand-alone' package with the name log4j.
The logging-common is still there, but would you really keep that
layer in between? You may decide that.
