Sure guys sorry. I've just tried running the code with Ant 1.7 beta2 and
the error remains.
The core build.xml contains the following (relevant) code:
===================================

========================================================================
==========================================
The junit-setup.xml contains the following:
========================================================================
==========================================
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project name="junit-setup">
<!--This entire file can be almost completely controlled by each
user as long as the "pre" and "post" targets are present.-->
<!--Every property and classpath that ebldtool already uses can
also be used in this file-->
<!--Its main purpose is to provide users with a means of kicking
off live servers/mc's with which to run their unit tests against.-->
<!--While the unit tests themselves are run by ebldtool,
everything that happens right up to,and directly after them, can be
specified here.-->
<!--This file is only examined and its targets run if the user
has the junit.setup.required property set to "true" in their
build.properties file.-->
<target name="pre" depends="" description="this is the
target that ebldtool looks to for instructions to carry out before
running unit tests">
<echo message="pre-junit"
</target>
<target name="post" depends="" description="this is the
target that ebldtool looks to for instructions to carry out before
running unit tests">
</target>
</project>
========================================================================
==========================================
I know that the properties being passed to junit are ok, because when I
bypass the call to the external junit-setup file, junit proceeds as
normal. So it's literally running the <ant> task in the <pre-junit> and
<post-junit> targets in the core build.xml snippets above that causes
the problem.

Please share the relevant excerpts of yours builds. Thanks, --DD
