Hm. IIRC, some projects' build.xmls did assume that common jars (like
junit.jar) were defined in "../build.properties". Maybe that's changed.
The whole thing is getting a bit messy. I posted a patch a while ago,
but it wasn't applied:

Should we assume developers have downloaded velocity, or jakarta-site2
(which httpclient assumes)? If jakarta-site2, we can just have
velocity.jar defined, because it includes the logkit jars.
