Hi, I applied a patch in this Locator method which is responsible for these slightly dissounding behaviors.
The corresponding commit was : http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/ant/core/trunk/src/main/org/apache/tools/ant/launch/Locator.java?r1=350068&r2=357131 The JDK does not behave consistently for these URI to File conversions between versions.
