Thanks, that works great! It also explains why the ant build works--it
always creates the directory first.
Unless this changes, perhaps the Clojure AOT mechanism should refuse
to create the directory at *compile-path* and instead require that it
already exist. That would catch many instances of this problem and
could provide a helpful message.
Is there any way Clojure can add *compile-path* to classpath at the
correct level so it's recognized in all the places it needs to be? I
gather if that were easy, Rich would have already done it.
Any ideas?
