[Travis Cripps]

Hi.  I've got a strange error in my build script, and I've been unable  
to find references to the error code in extensive searches on the  
internet.  I've been poring over the build script for almost 2 days,  
but I must be blind or something, as I can't see where the problem  
would be.  I have a similar script, upon which I'm basing this script,  
and it builds fine.  I'd appreciate any help to understand the error,  
what might cause it, and how I could fix it. :)

The pertinent information:
MacOS X 10.2.8 with Java 1.4.2-38
Ant 1.6.1
WOProject Ant task (http://objectstyle.org/woproject/).  I'm pretty  
sure the problem isn't WOProject, because my other script builds  
correctly...)

I've got tons of output from the verbose and debug flags, bug still  
haven't understood what's wrong.  The script's verbose output and error  
messages are below, as well as the parts of the script that are  
pertinent.

Thank you very much.
