Which also implies that we'll need to go through Ant's codebase and
replace all Class.forName() calls (we better do that anyway 8-).

Which introduces a hole to defeat Gump, or any other setup that uses
build.sysclasspath=only.  I've not looked into the patch, but we'll
have to ensure that ant.class.path will be set to java.class.path when
the launcher has not been used - and do that before the user had a
chance to set this property.
