FYI: Jasper2 ( the proposed replacement JSP compiler for 4.1.X release )
has switched from his own adapter to javac to the one present at the
current Ant ( 1.4 codebase if i recall well), just for the very same
reasons you give in your message.. it's unlikely that ant will stop to
compile java at any future version :)).. and this way one can leave
those things to the people that already know how..
