It always has for me (all the way back to release 1.2).

I've never seen it do anything like that.
I can have a <javac> target as simple as (as of Ant1.2 - before that,
'destdir' was required):
<target name="compile">
<javac srcdir="src"/>
</target>
and it'll do the completely right thing, even if there are *.java~ files
around. I've just verified that's true for 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, and 1.4.1, and
if I add a 'destdir' attr, for 1.1 as well).
