Further on the JavaCC issue.  In Lucene-land we use <java> to launch JavaCC rather than the <javacc> 
task.  <javacc> is too brittle and has too much "magic" in it for my pragmatic tastes.  Using <java> is 
simple and clean - we use an Ant property to refer to the classname, so if we change to another version 
of JavaCC (which is quite rare) we simply change that classname too, and no big deal.  Check the 
jakarta-lucene CVS repository for the build.xml as an example.
