 OK. It is a good reason.

 My build system loads Ant project files from the disk, and I just adapt the
 code to load them from a JAR resources.

 I can say to you that such a code (set basedir, listener and project name) is
 working with both a File and a URL in my build system context as fas as the
 exception is not thrown in the ProjectHelper2:

  public static Project loadAntProject(Project currentProject,
                                       Object antproject) {
      ProjectHelper helper =
          (ProjectHelper) currentProject.getReference("ant.projectHelper");

      Project project = new Project();
      currentProject.initSubProject(project);

      // Copy listeners to enable logging
      Iterator listenerIt = currentProject.getBuildListeners().iterator();
      while (listenerIt.hasNext()) {
          BuildListener bl = (BuildListener) listenerIt.next();
          currentProject.log("  Adding listener " + bl, Project.MSG_DEBUG);
          project.addBuildListener(bl);
      }

      project.addReference("ant.projectHelper", helper);
      project.setBaseDir(currentProject.getBaseDir());

      helper.parse(project, antproject);

      // Set project name
      AntXMLContext context = null;
      context = (AntXMLContext)
          project.getReference("ant.parsing.context");
      project.setName(context.getCurrentProjectName());
      return project;
  }

 Isn't it possible to remove the exception 'throw' statement and document the
 method to say that parsing a URL is at your own risk (I aggree to take it ;)) ?

 In fact, ProjectHelper2 is not opened enough (private attributes) to be
 inherited to change such a small part of code...

 Please help me, comment that part of code that never occurs finally (as far as
 import url is not implemented as your said) !
 Many thanks in advance
