1. Have a clean Ant-src directory ( /tmp/ant/apache-ant-1.7.0 ), means:
- no "build"
- no "bootstrap"
- no "dist"
On windows I use a small batch file:
@echo off
rd /Q/S bootstrap build dist
del *.log
del TEST-*.*
2. Build Ant and provide the path to additional libraries
build -lib path-to-dir-containing-junitjar
But speaking for JUnit: it is part of the source:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ant/core/trunk/lib/optional/
