This gives me trouble all the time.  Javac can recompile code with
target 1.7 that was intended to be compiled with 1.6 if it gets
recompiled as a side effect of compilng something with 1.7.

I wrote a utility http://mindprod.com/products1.html#JARCHECK to make
sure everything is the version it is supposed to be.  If it is out of
whack, I manually clean compile it.  If it is really screwed up, I do
a clean rebuild of everything.

I would be quite surprised if the NSA (National Security Agency)
did not have a computer program to scan bits of shredded
documents and electronically put them back together like a giant
jigsaw puzzle. This suggests you cannot just shred, you must also burn.
