The <java> task does strange things with the classloader. My advice would be to use fork="yes" unless there is a reason not to.
As regards the exception you are seeing, this is as far as I can see behaviour as designed. If one gives a classpath to the <java> task, the classname *must* be in the classpath, for example: <path id="empty"/> <java classname="java.lang.Object" classpathref="empty"/> -- Could not find java.lang.Object. Make sure you have it in your classpath. However, there is a bug in ant with regard to the com.sun.xml.internal.bind.v2.* classes. There are in the rt.jar for java6, and these packages need to be placed in the JavaEnvUtils.java class. I suspect that your original build file ran into this bug. This should be fixed soon, but in the meantime, you should use fork="yes".
