Cool to see that in 1.7 they solved this issue in a clean way: this was
*one* of the triggers that led me to try maven2 1.5 years ago.
I like the #5:
---
Leave ant-junit.jar in its default location in ANT_HOME/lib but include
junit.jar in the <classpath> passed to <junit>. (since Ant 1.7)
---
This would require to put the junit.jar in the stage folder, but if I
understood it correctly ASF allows us to do this.
it's on the proposed list of approved binary licenses
(http://www.apache.org/legal/3party.html) so it should be fine. feel
free to add it.
