You are trying to zip up a directory and put the resulting archive in
that directory as well. As a result, the archive itself is among the
list of files that should be added to the archive - and Ant complains.
Exclude the archive from your jar, something like
<jar jarfile="my.jar" basedir="." excludes="my.jar" />
and you won't get that warning.

Which means that TCC bundles a very old version of Ant, drop that
immediately. The test has been added in Ant 1.3.
