i've run into a similar problem in the ant's antfile, the problem appears to be
a bug in the java.io.File.isAbsolute() method in the windows platform.
in my case i've modified the Ant task to use the following piece of code.
i've just looked how Project.setBasedir works and it uses the
FileUtils.normalize() method.
i think the place to add this workaround is the FileUtils.normalize() method,
then the ant.setAntfile() method should be retrofitted to use the normalized
(similarly any other attribute that expects a file name).
hope this helps.

-------------------------------------------------------------
private File getAntFile(String fileName) {
File file = new File(fileName);
if (file.exists() && file.isFile()) {
if (!file.isAbsolute()) {
// i have to do this because a bug in the JDK (1.2)
java.io.File.isAbsolute() method in Windows platforms.
boolean doIt = true;
boolean winOS =
(System.getProperty("os.name").indexOf("indows")>0);
if (winOS) {
doIt = !(antFile.startsWith("\\") ||
antFile.startsWith("/"));
}
if (doIt) {
antFile = (new File(dir, antFile)).getAbsolutePath();
file = (new File(antFile)) ;
}
}
}
else {
file = null;
}
return file;
}
