For Equinox (org.eclipse.osgi_*.jar) you should use
/usr/share/java/eclipse/osgi.jar symlink, which is always up-to-date and
points to lib/ or lib64/ depending on system arch (noarch packages can
have symlinks to osgi.jar, but not org.eclipse.osgi_*.jar).

For log4j12, I don't see any problem. Can you provide more details?

We're already after Alpha release, I don't think we can or should have
any mass rebuild. Instead we should focus on finding and fixing bugs in
individual packages.
