repeated <antcall/> cause OutOfMemeory exception

           Summary: repeated <antcall/> cause OutOfMemeory exception
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.5.1
          Platform: Sun
        OS/Version: Solaris
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core tasks
        AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: francisip@yahoo.com


If <antcall/> is invoked many times in the same JVM, the JVM may throw an 
OutOfMemeory exception.

Problem can be easily reproduced by the following simple build file:
<project name="mybuild" default="run" >

    <target name="echo" >
         <echo message="Hello,world" />
    </target>

   <target name="run">
        <antcall target="echo" />
        <antcall target="echo" />
        <!-- repeat 1000 times -->
   </target>

</project>


Errors reported :
echo:
     [echo] Hello, world
  [antcall] calling target echo in build 
file /private/fip/viewwork/fip_j2ee6/tklocal/build1.xml

[ ... repeated many times ...]
echo:
     [echo] Hello, world
  [antcall] calling target echo in build 
file /private/fip/viewwork/fip_j2ee6/tklocal/build1.xml
