It's been a while since I filed this JIRA bug. I thought I had the
problem licked, but it turns out not to be so. I've just uploaded a
testcase.  It
consists of the small application from BBwM book, a driver, and five
ant scripts.  The driver will run one ant script on each invocation, or
will clean up everything.

You can also read the comments I just added to MNG-2684.

thanks,
