I am a little confused about tasks

I am adding a new Star Team task to label the source.  I have also modified
the Star Team check out task to take a label.  I assume I have to add a task
def for my new task, but I don't see where the task def for the Star Team
check out task is.  Is this automatic?  Is there a config file somewhere I
have overlooked?

It's hidden in ant.jar: 

C:\Java\work\jakarta-ant\build>jar tvf lib\ant.jar | grep defaults
  5818 Tue May 01 13:30:22 GMT+02:00 2001 org/apache/tools/ant/taskdefs/defaults.properties
   174 Fri Nov 17 11:00:58 GMT+01:00 2000 org/apache/tools/ant/types/defaults.properties

The first file defines the tasks, the second one the types (fileset, etc). 

They don't contain taskdef's, simply lines mapping a taskname to a classname.

It's in defaults.properties, in org/apache/tools/ant/taskdefs:
  starteam=org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.scm.AntStarTeamCheckOut
