The problem is jdk 1.8 has turned on build failures when javadoc is generated, because the [unmentionable word] boneheads in charge of the damned thing think that stability isn't important, and they don't think XHTML is a valid form of HTML. So ... all of that laboriously constructed javadoc now throws error after error, and we have a choice between no javadoc and no build. Except that I can turn stuff off, which means that it won't build (at all) with jdk 1.7, because it's got jdk 1.8-specific stuff the profiles in the pom.
Which sort of means that we need to fix this, but free time, which by definition is copious, is in surprisingly short supply, despite being copious and free.
