It seems to me you have specific ant files per customer to build everything. A standard Eclipse Ant-install would not suffice, I suppose. I was thinking of a Hudson type of installation, so that an update of a framework would lead to (for the moment) 5 different deployed installation. I don't know if ant plays nice with ant.
