Two ways I know of:
1) Make <myrmic> take care of it internally - this is really the "Ant-way".
2) Use <apply> to invoke rmic as a command-line utility, and using a
<mapper> you should be able to achieve the up-to-date checks you desire.

Subject: conditional dependency logic based "uptodate"

> <target name="make-rmic" depends="determine-rmic"
> unless="rmic.notRequired">
> <myrmic dir="${src}/com/mycompany/rmi/*.java"/>
