Jersey 1.3 requires Java 6?

I am just trying to get started with Jersey 1.3 using jar files downloaded from the links in the user guide.
However compilation of my app fails with Java 5:
 
D:\projekte\...\GuiceConfig.java
    Error:Error:line (7)cannot access com.sun.jersey.api.core.PackagesResourceConfig
bad class file: D:\projekte\jamyguice\lib\jersey\jersey-server-1.3.jar(com/sun/jersey/api/core/PackagesResourceConfig.class)
class file has wrong version 50.0, should be 49.0
Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath.
 
Is Java 6 dependency a bug in the build process or a real requirement?
