 Log Message:
 Update devel/apache-ant to 1.8.1
 Fixes PR pkg/43752
 
 Changes from Ant 1.8.0 TO Ant 1.8.1:
 - Changes that could break older environments:
  * ant-trax.jar is no longer produced since TrAX is included in JDK 1.4+.
  * Ant no longer ships with Apache Xerces-J or the XML APIs but relies
    on the Java runtime to provide a parser and matching API versions.
  * The stylebook ant task and the ant-stylebook.jar are removed.
 
 - Fixed bugs:
  * Tasks that iterate over task or type definitions, references or
    targets now iterate over copies instead of the live maps to avoid
    ConcurrentModificationExceptions if another thread changes the
    maps.
  * The filesmatch condition threw a NullPointerException when
    comparing text files and the second file contained fewer lines than
    the first one.
  * Regression: The <ear> task would allow multiple
    META-INF/application.xml files to be added.
  * VectorSet#remove(Object) would fail if the size of the vector
    equaled its capacity.
  * Regression : ant -diagnostics was returning with exit code 1
  * Fix for exec task sometimes inserts extraneous newlines
  * SymlinkTest#testSymbolicLinkUtilsMethods failing on MacOS
  * If <concat>'s first resourcecollection child is a <resources>,
    any subsequently added child resourcecollection joins the first.
  * <get> with an invalid URL could trigger an NPE in some JVMs.
  * Broken Pipe issue under Ubuntu Linux
  * Properties wrongly read from file or not update during read
  * AntClassLoader in Ant 1.8.0 has been considerably slower than in
    1.7.1
  * ANT_CMD_LINE_ARGS are rippling through lower level Ant usage
  * email : IO error sending mail with plain mimetype
  * the complete-ant-cmd.pl script failed to create a proper cache of
    target if "ant -p" failed.
  * <rmic>'s sourcebase attribute was broken.
  * <copy>'s failonerror didn't work as expected when copying a single
    element resource collection to a file.
  * <get> no longer followed redirects if the redirect URL was relative
    and not an absolute URL.
  * fixed a performance degradation in the code that expands property
    references.
  * <jar filesetmanifest="merge"> was broken on Windows.
  * <symlink> delete failed if the link attribute was a relative path
    to a link inside the current directory without a leading ".".
  * <telnet> and <rexec> failed to find the expected strings when
    waiting for responses and thus always failed.
 
 - Other changes:
  * Project provides new get methods that return copies instead of the
    live maps of task and type definitions, references and targets.
  * Ant is now more lenient with ZIP extra fields and will be able to
    read archives that it failed to read in earlier versions.
  * The <zip> family of tasks has been sped up for bigger archives.
  * Add removeKeepExtension option to NetRexxC task.
  * Add prefix attribute to loadproperties task.
  * Add resource attribute to length task.
  * PropertyResource will effectively proxy another Resource if ${name}
    evaluates to a Resource object.
  * Added forcestring attribute to equals condition to force evaluation
    of Object args as strings; previously only API-level usage of the
    equals condition allowed Object args, but Ant 1.8.x+ property
    evaluation may yield values of any type.
  * BuildFileTest.assertPropertyUnset() fails with a slightly more
    meaningful error message
  * <junit> will now throw an exception if a test name is empty.  This
    used to manifest itself in unrelated errors like
  * A change that made <exec> more reliable on Windows (Bugzilla Report
    5003) strongly impacts the performance for commands that execute
    quickly, like attrib.  Basically no single execution of a command
    could take less than a second on Windows.
    A few timeouts have been tweaked to allow these commands to finish
    more quickly but still they will take longer than they did with Ant
    1.7.1.
  * Added SimpleBigProjectLogger, intermediate between NoBannerLogger and
    BigProjectLogger.
  * <mappedresources> supports new attributes enablemultiplemappings
    and cache.
  * Added the augment task to manipulate existing references via Ant's basic
    introspection mechanisms.
