Thank you for the background.  Patching the build.xml for ecj does allow
ant-core to compile.
But I'm hitting the same symptom now when trying to compile
concurrent-util.  So I'm currently
trying to find how the "custom" build.xml is being pulled into the build
so it can be patched too.

Thank you,
Roy
