Ah, the light dawns. Even with "fork" set to yes, you STILL have to
have a dir="${basedir}"
in the <junit> task. Just setting "fork" to yes won't change the dir.

Well, this just keeps getting stranger all the time.
The ant script is invoked with dir set to the directory in which the
"called" build.xml is located. junit is invoked within this "called"
script with fork set to "yes". No dir is defined for junit, which, I
would think would cause it default to using basedir which should be the
directory specified by the "dir" attribute in the ant call. And yet, it
doesn't work that way. It acts as though the current directory is the
current directory of the "calling" build.xml.

See the 'dir' attribute in the "Parameters" table of the Ant task
description in the doc.
