Ant 1.5 cannot update jar files (with the <jar> task). Its a lousy bug introduced in 1.5. Worked fine in Ant 1.4. They also changed the keyword from jarfile to distfile, which doesn't make sense when you think about how many ant builds will break if people fail to read the readme file. Instead of using the ant task, I'm now exec'ing the jar out of desperation. Please do not send me any advice or patches. I am so sick of this bug, I just don't want to waste another second on it.
I tried your change to the exec, and it does not work for me, so Im leaving the exec as is for now. Never ending. Its almost comical now.
