true.
The problem exists in CVS HEAD for TokenFilter, it can take
TokenFilter.Filter and TokenFilter.Tokenizer objects. Suppose
an object implements both interfaces?. The current code
just treats it as a TokenFilter.Filter.

I do not see the problem here: suppose Path implements
dynamicElement(Path path)
one could do:
<javac>
<classpath>
<PathThatIgnoresBuildSysclassPathToTrickGump>
<pathelement path="${classpath}"/>
</PathThatIgnoresBuildSysclassPathToTrickGump>
</classpath>
</javac>
