AFAIK, if your Bundle-RequireExecutionEnvironment is set correctly in

end up with 1.4- or 5.0-compliant code. Much simpler.
Depending on you settings, you might get lots of warnings from the
Eclipse compiler when you compile without a "strictly compatible" JDK
installed. Our build is setup that way. Others might be too. It's an
easy way to ensure that you compile against the correct rt.jar and don't
use classes from a higher JDK.
And yes, Tycho is simpler than PDE (less configuration needed,
arguably more/differently extensible), but currently lacks support for
generation of source plugins/features.
The PDE builder (and hence Buckminster) can be forced to generate
correct bytecodes by adding a line like this to the build.properties file:
jre.compilation.profile = J2SE-1.5
AFAIK, no configuration is needed aside from what you already have in
your workspace.
