[slf4j-dev] jcl-over-slf4j module not building

[Ceki Gülcü]

I believe it was my bad. I introduced a new dependency without
thinking about the consequences at the OSGi level. My apologies for
the inconvenience.

There are two possible solutions:

1) move the LocationAwareLogger interface from org.slf4j.spi to org.slf4j.
2) export the org.slf4j.spi package

I have a slight preference for the second option. Moving
LocationAwareLogger to org.slf4j will put this interface right in front
of the eyes of our users (increased brain-print) even if it is
mostly a technical detail.

John, is option two OK with you?
