Update to 1.19. Change summary:

*** Jikes 1.19 was released 1 February 2004.

The default -source and -target options are now 1.4 (that is, the
assert statement now compiles by default); for the old behavior you
must specify -source 1.3 or -target 1.3 at the command line.

Command line options have been improved.
* Some pedantic warnings are controlled by name, so that you can
select which warnings you get (for example, not everyone wants to know
that 1L is preferred over 1l when writing a long literal).
* More switches have long names.
* Default state of switches now printed with --help.
* New switch -Xswitchcheck: Warn about fallthrough in switch
statements (compatible with javac).
* New switch +Pnaming-convention: Warn about naming choices that
violate Java's naming conventions. This switch is currently ON by
default, +Pno-naming-convention will disable it for sites that use
a different naming convention.
* New switch --noassert: Omits assertions from .class files (not
recommended for normal development, but provided to allow you to do
-source 1.4 -target 1.3).
* Now supports -target 1.4.2 (compatible with javac, no changes from
-target 1.4 in emitted code).
