Why are you even trying to use Maven if you end up using Ant for everything?
Try using antrun, instead of exec to call ant.. When I migrated a number of projects from Ant to Maven, I began by pulling pieces of each project out. My 5 Ant projects turned into about 10 Maven projects. What parts of your build make it complicated?
