And I can confirm that it works for me with Kaffe's CVS head. Since you're using
the normal debian packages, setting a few additional env vars should do the
trick for the bootstrap with kaffe:
#### extras for ant bootstrap with kaffe
##
## Use jikes with kaffe's class libraries on bootclasspath
export JAVAC=jikes-kaffe
## Jikes doesn't like javac.source=1.2 in build.xml, but only accepts 1.3 or 1.4
export ANT_OPTS="-Dbuild.compiler=jikes -Djavac.source=1.3"
The next issue I had was a bug in GNU JAXP's lookup of SAX parsers. Thanks to
gump for making it easy to spot! ;)
With the issue fixed in my local kaffe tree, ant bootstraps fine and dies on ant
build die to missing configuration bits: xml-apis, and xml-xalan. That's my next
target ;)
cheers,

No. ANT_OPTS is only used by the Ant wrapper script and Gump invokes
Ant via java directly.

Yes. Inside the workspace definition one used to be able to specify
arbitrary properties to be passed to Ant. I'd expect that to still be
true.

Yep. Getting & building Kaffe from CVS is probably too much manual labour
if you don't intend to hack on Kaffe specifically, while anyone can
update the installed versions of kaffe and jikes-kaffe using apt, I guess.
And I can take care of injecting bug fixes from/for gump into Kaffe's
package on debian, being on the pkg-kaffe team there ;)

Yep. Is setting the environment variable ANT_OPTS enough for gump's ant builds,
or does one need to put it somewhere special, too?

Only that we (well, anybody with root privileges) install the
appropriate jikes package and set the two env variables before
starting the bootstrap script.
The workspace will need to set the build.compiler property to jikes
for all Ant builds as well.

So, are you suggesting that we do the above, or are you suggesting that we
should prepare to get Kaffe from CVS?
