Looking quickly at the Ant Main source code reveals it's using
System.exit() and therefore killing the JVM upon exit.
https://github.com/apache/ant/blob/trunk/src/main/org/apache/tools/ant/Main.java
You may have to either subclass Main and override the exit() method or fork
the process to execute ant.
e.g. java('org.apache.tools.ant.Main', '-file', 'build.xml',
'package', :classpath
=> Ant.dependencies)
