No, really Stefan! recurse.xml was doing a <subant> on rescue.xml, and it's
rescue.xml which failed to parse (like I said, because rescue.xml was doing
an entity include of a URI using a custom URL protocol not enabled during
this run. FTR, I was replacing entity include using that protocol with
<import>).

So Filters.xml was importing recurse.xml
recurse.xml was <subant>'ing rescue.xml
rescue.xml failed to parse because of the entity include (see above)

And *still* the error messages never mentioned that *rescue.xml* failed to
parse, and simply reported on IOException in recurse.xml, never mentioning
as well that recurse.xml was itself imported by Filters.xml.

I don't know what layer is at fault here, but the proper error should have
reported that rescue.xml failed to parse, from <subant> at line XYZ in
recurse.xml, imported from Filters.xml at line ABC.

Without this kind of clear and detailed error report, <import> and
<[sub]ant> will not mix happily!

As I said above, I think it's absolutely necessary Ant does this! --DD
