Just a quick follow-up...
I tried changing the custom <copyrepl> task with <copy> and things
worked fine in Ant-1.5 even when using the <ant> call. I guess that
means that either the custom <copyrepl> task is somewhat incompatible
with Ant-1.5 or it is some sort of classpath issue.
It would be strange if the reason for the failure is that the task is
incompatible because it works when not run through the <ant> task and
works fine in all cases in Ant-1.4.1.
So, does that mean it is a classpath issue? The subproject generates
its own classpath including the CopyAndReplace Ant task. However, the
superbuild also creates a classpath including that task. But, then
again, I have had no other issues that would point to a problem with
the classpath.
This is kind of mysterious!
