Niall reminded me of this. Math has at least one test that requires swingui, which isn't there in JUnit HEAD. As a result, Math was changed to depend on the packaged junit-3.8.x.jar so that it would still build. Most other projects work fine with JUnit HEAD, so they don't even get attempted while JUnit is failing.
Ant only has an optional dependancy on JUnit HEAD, so it simply chooses not to create ant-junit.jar when it builds. The result is that Math doesn't have ant-junit.jar available to it, so it fails. Of course, the best thing would be to convince the JUnit people to fix the broken commit that is causing it to fail :). A temporary solution would be to change Math depend on JUnit HEAD, and switch it back when JUnit starts building again.
