As requested* I am officially pestering ant-dev about bug 5268
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5268, which deals with the
sourcepath option to the Java compiler. The original requester needed to run
the compiler with no sourcepath set; we additionally require the ability to
explicitly set the sourcepath to our desired value. About six weeks ago I
sent a simple, backwards-compatible, and I think very low risk patch to this
list, including the necessary doc changes. That patch is also attached to
the bug report. We are currently shipping our product (SilverStream eXtend
Workbench) with a modified version of Ant that contains this patch, but I'm
really hoping that Ant 1.5 can incorporate this feature so that we can use
the standard Ant distribution.

Thanks for your consideration.
