Its not that Ant's return code is invalid, it is that Ant doesnt set one
indicating whether it succeeded or failed.

That has been a policy decision in the past, mainly for Win9x compatilbity. If
you can come with a patch for ant.bat that works on both the WinXP and Win9x
platforms, then we can fix it. 

Tip: the perl and python entry points do set the return value properly.
