Why? That would mean that features added to ant could not be used in Ant's own buildfile. For example, in Ant 1.3, we would not have been able to build tar files with long filenames and appropriate execute permissions. Ant will always be buildable by the current version (via bootstrapping). I do not think we should require the latest version to always be buildable by the previous release. The converse is true, however.
