it showed up when i build ant. but JUnitTask is not in the jar, so this is 
the problem. i need to get a good optional.jar

the one on win98 is about twice as big. (i downloaded that, but afaict, i 
never did anything with it). don't quite know how it worked on the windoze 
system.

but this was the problem. the up-to-date optional.jar is on the page where 
the binaries are, so i never put it on the linux box since i was 
downloading source! except for having "." instead of "build" in the path, 
there were no other problems.

thanks for all the help.

Aha!

If you build Ant yourself, optional.jar will contain all tasks that
Ant could build on your system.  If junit.jar is not on your CLASSPATH
when you build Ant, the junit task will not be part of optional.jar.

Use the one from out download area 8-).
