Can't put optional tasks jar out of ant/lib

I'm trying to use the JDepend optional task without having to put the
jdepend.jar in the ant/lib dir.

So I have (yesterday's CVS version of jar):

./tools/ant/lib/ant.jar
./tools/ant/lib/optional.jar

./tools/tmp/tasks.properties (containing the task definition)

./tools/other/lib/jdepend.jar

I write:

    <!-- define the tasks found in cents -->
    <taskdef file="./tools/tmp/tasks.properties">
     <classpath>
      <fileset dir="./tools">
        <include name="**/*.jar"/>
      </fileset>
     </classpath>
    </taskdef>

But in verbose mode it says:

  [taskdef] Loading definitions from file
C:\jbprojects\jakarta-poi\tools\tmp\ta
sks.properties

BUILD FAILED
C:\jbprojects\jakarta-poi\build.xml:68: taskdef class

If I put jdepend.jar in ant/lib it works but I don't want to do it.
Also changeing the script is not an option because some use build.xml
directly with ant called via java.

Any clues?

Thanks in advance :-)
