Ever since the JUnit 4.1 upgrade, I've been running into this problem when running tests: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42053 See also: http://www.nabble.com/Ant-1.7RC1-Junit-4.1-t2631706.html
I believe this is happening because the Ant 1.6.2 jars in tools/buildtime are conflicting with 1.7.0. Upgrading the jars solves the problem. Any objection to updating those jars to 1.7.0? - Dave PS. here's what I get when I run 'ant test' in apps/planet with Ant 1.7.0: ... ...
