Re: Leap Year Bug in Ant 1.7.0 FTP task - Daylight Savings?

[Shay Thompson <st...@adobe.com>]

I noticed today that a few of my servers which run the Ant FTP task 
failed on Sunday when they were working on Saturday, almost as if 
they're now having a problem with daylight savings.  I also noticed that 
only the machines running Java 1.5.0_11 are failing while those with 
1.5.0_04 are working, which is even more odd.  All of these are throwing 
NullPointerException's.  I also tried touching the folder contents and 
the parent folders so nothing had a date of 2/29 and still I see problems.
