No objection here but just to mention that since you need to set 
NEWBUILD=false then it might not be too much extra to also set 
JAVAC_WARNINGS_FATAL=false.

In any case, I think it would be desirable if there was a retirement 
date set for the old build so that the remaining users (I assume very 
few at this point) have something to aim for.
