Because JUnit4 is just released and it seemed to me that it wasnt very clear 
available in the cvs (as Gump has used only the 'old' 3.8.1), I doubt that 
there are many thoughts about integrating JUnit4 into Ant yet.

JUnit4 also needs Java5 due to extensive use of annotations and generics. Ant´s 
guideline is to be buildable on JDK1.2. Therefore JUnit4 could be only an 
optional add-on - like apt support.

What does Ant with JUnit at this time? Having a JUnitRunner (<junit>) and 
building a report from that output (<junitformat>). From the user point of view 
nothing changes. Ant does not use on of the existing JUnit runners (AFAIK) - it 
implements its own. 
We could see how to run JUnit4-tests with that and where enhancements are 
needed.

If you want to spent time on that you´re welcome ;-)
