Net build problem solved.

One must set the 'base.path' property to an absolute directory name for 
the net build script to function properly. Using a relative path will 
cause the script to fail.

I'm still not sure where the site code sits in CVS. This file should be 
changed:

http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/building.html

However, I took a stab at a patch, attached.

(Another option is to allow relative paths probably through the tricky 
use of a dirset and pathconvert (that's the only way I can think of to 
unconditionaly make a string an absolute path in ant).)
