Which brings up another thought I had.  Maybe converting these to a
series of ant build.xml snippets.


I really like the idea: ideally we should only keep two platform dependent scripts, "ant" 
and "ant.bat" (even if it would be nice
to rename them "ofbiz" or similar to avoid the risk of running a different 
version of ant), and all the remaining tools can be
implemented as ant targets.

startofbiz.sh(and stop) should remain shell scripts.  java is not exactly 
light-weight, and using ant would have 2 javas running.

I'm not agains keeping them, but here it's only 45MB for the java process 
called by ant (1.6.0_22 on Win XP). Not a big deal with
nowadays memories, around 1.125 % for a standard box (4GB)...
