Thanks, that looks useful.

However, I don't know whether all the developers can move to Ant 1.6beta - I
doubt that Eclipse will support 1.6 until some while after it comes out of
beta. Eclipse 2.1.2 is currently on Ant 1.5.3.

It would be nice if we could find a way to use that facility just for Gump
without having to make the build file excessively complicated, but I think
we're OK with the existing hack for the time being.
