     Yes, our custom ant task creates -Xbootclasspath option using 
CommandlineJava.createJvmArg().setValue(String).  I see that there is a 
CommandlineJava.createBootclasspath(Project) method since Ant 1.6, and I 
take it that that is the method that we ought to be using.

     Thanks for all of your help in debugging this failure!

Thanks,

Henry
