Please show me a lightweight implementation that works with older OVAL standards.

Last time I checked, the reference implementation was the only existing implementation, it was 4MB big, written in java (?) and choked on the Red Hat OVAL output because it failed to be backward compatible with earlier releases.
Not sure where you saw the java implementation, the only 2 different ones I have seen are done in C++ and seem to work quite well. Although, to be honest, I have not really used this beyond general prodding as a point of interest.
