In addition to 
    |   |- cactus.jar
    |   |- cactus-ant.jar
    |   |- commons-httpclient.jar
    |   |- commons-logging.jar
    |   |- junit.jar
    |   |- aspectjrt.jar

described on that page (which I had already tried), I also needed to put
xerces.jar, and xml-apis.jar on the Ant classpath as well. This is not
described in the documentation,and I am wondering why those jars were
not on my classpath already, since some of the other eclipse/ant stuff
probably uses them. It is probably an Eclipse specific thing.

At least the cactifywar task now seems to work, although the build file
editor is still giving me a warning about missing JUnit classes
(junit.framework.TestListener).

Thanks for the help, all the same.
