It appears that a problem with ant 1.7.1 can potentially impact the open jdk
builds, see
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=43114 for more
information.
The potential for missing package-info.class files seems high, and the
latest jaxws
sources run into this problem.
We've seen this issue on Fedora 10 and 11.
Since you don't list Fedora 12, I'm curious - has the corresponding patch
from ant been backported to the Fedora 12 ant packages?
Sorry, I haven't seen the issue myself nor do I know what's in the
various Ant packages. I've pointed Pavel at this thread; maybe he'll
know more.
I saw this issue on these combinations of Fedora systems and Ant versions:
Fedora 10 (i386 | x86_64 | ppc) Apache Ant version 1.7.1 compiled on
October 1 2008
Fedora 11 (i386 | x86_64) Apache Ant version 1.7.1 compiled on
February 24 2009
Fedora 12 (i386 | x86_64) Apache Ant version 1.7.1 compiled on
August 13 2009

Can we not just blacklist 1.7.1 as suggested in the bug? Personally,
you may not want to move to 1.7.0 but forcing 1.8 is going to be
difficult as it's not yet in enough distros. That said, by the time
this filters through to OpenJDK6, it may be.
Is there no way of working around 1.7.1 on our side?
I assume the distributions that ship a patched ant 1.7.1 package could
change the check to accept 1.7.1. Would that work?
1.8 has its own issues, as have been posted on the list too. I think
blocking anything but 1.8 is far too drastic, especially in the
immediate future.
cheers,
