Bug in build.xml (missing "exclude" in "compile" target)

           Summary: Bug in build.xml (missing "exclude" in "compile" target)
           Product: Axis
           Version: 1.1
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: Other
         Component: Basic Architecture
        AssignedTo: axis-dev@ws.apache.org
        ReportedBy: steve.viens@fidelity.com


The following "exclude" task is missing from the "compile" target causing the 
build to break if "servlet.jar" is not in the classpath.


 <exclude 
   name="**/org/apache/axis/handlers/EchoHandler.java"
   unless="servlet.present"/>


According to the "Guide to building Axis" the reader should be able to build 
Axis "with just the bare required jars" of which "servlet.jar" is not one. 

When servlet.jar is not present, Ant attempts to build EchoHandler.java which, 
of course, breaks.  Strangley enough, Ant then proceeds to ignore all of the 
other "exclude" tasks where unless="servlet.present" is stated an trys to 
compile each of these classes producing dozens of compilation errors.
