I don't really have an opinion myself whether we still want to support
JUnit 3.x or not. Nobody else either?
We could poll the users list but would likely get the usual mixed bag of
"go ahead, JUnit 4 has been available for X years" and "we cannot
upgrade for political reasons, JUnit 3 support is essential for us".
Given Ant 1.9.0 likely doesn't work with JUnit 3 we may wait a bit and
consider the lack of bug reports a sign that JUnit 3 compatibility isn't
needed anymore.

In that case I'd be in favor of reverting my commit and making sure
Ant's ant-junit.jar is buildable without JUnit 4.x.

To be clear, we absolutely need to support 3.x *tests*. The question is whether we want to mandate that junit-4.*.jar be in the test classpath even for projects using
only JUnit 3.x features. I do not think this is an unreasonable concession to progress, but it will break some builds.
