Javac messages ?

Hi,
When my javac compilation task fails, I've got this strange error message

build.xml:5: Compile failed, messages should have been provided.
Compile failed, messages should have been provided.
 at org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Javac.doModernCompile(Javac.java:620)

But there is not messages to provide to the javac task. So what's the issue
?

Read this as "messages should have been provided _by_javac_". Your
compilation failed, Ant doesn't know why, but your compiler should
have told you.
