Thank you all. I believe I have identified the problem.

Never never hide an old version of woproject.jar in your ~/.ant/lib directory.

If you are getting standalone ant build errors and weirdness after upgrading, 
always always check. It also breaks ant builds from within eclipse.

I should have guessed as the stack trace showed it was a problem with the 
woproject ant task:

        org.objectstyle.woproject.ant.FrameworkSet.getEclipseFrameworks(Unknown 
Source)

Interestingly, [https://wiki.wocommunity.org/display/WOL/WOProject-Ant] says " 
It is not recommended to drop woproject.jar into your ant lib directory since 
woproject is under continuous development and different versions can trigger 
problems such as errors when build WOnder from source.” Not sure how to avoid 
this if you want command-line ant to work. I have lots of frameworks so have 
never used eclipse to actually build the application.

In fact, I’ve now build wolips locally from Flavio’s instructions 
(http://lists.apple.com/archives/webobjects-dev/2014/Sep/msg00109.html) and 
symlinked this in so I’ll hopefully notice OR will find this email on the 
mailing list and remind myself (when we’re on eclipse 6 and webobjects 7 ahem).

Yours (idiotically),

Mark
