I am a newbeeeeee
I have loaded the source tree to my Linux machine
for ANT. I now want to build ANT so I can use it as
a tool to build other things, specifically TDK-2.1 (turbine)
I want to end up using the following command
ant build.xml
while in the source tree for the TDK-2.1 (Turbine)

Donald,
Are you trying to install Ant or build it from source?
