projecthelp throws a java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException

           Summary: projecthelp throws a
                    java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException
           Product: Ant
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core
        AssignedTo: ant-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: dominickmancine@hotmail.com


This only applies to targets that include descriptions (so they are reported in 
the projecthelp report).  When the longest target name is 16 characters long, 
and there is a target name of length 1, a 
java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException is generated.  Here is the stack 
trace:
        at java.lang.String.substring(String.java:1473)
        at org.apache.tools.ant.Main.printTargets(Main.java:934)
        at org.apache.tools.ant.Main.printTargets(Main.java:862)
        at org.apache.tools.ant.Main.runBuild(Main.java:601)
        at org.apache.tools.ant.Main.start(Main.java:196)
        at org.apache.tools.ant.Main.main(Main.java:235)

It occurs because a string of spaces is created that's the length of the 
longest target name, but an additional space is needed to pad names of length 
1.  Thus, the substring call fails.
