Can't say for sure, but you mention ${efc.jar} in your text and
${efc.jarfile} in your build.xml -- which one is defined?
BTW: Since you're only checking against the one file, you could just do:
<uptodate property="efc.tarGZBuild.notRequired"
targetfile="${efc.gzfile}"
srcfile="${efc.lib}/${efc.jarfile}"/>
and save a little typing. (Although I just checked, and it looks
undocumented -- oops.)
