You don't like the text of the warning message, or the fact that there is a
warning at all?
I have just seen a lot of build scripts which used the historical default of true, thus including ant.jar etc. in the classpath of quite unrelated code. (In the unusual
case that you are in fact compiling Ant tasks, adding ${ant.core.lib} to the classpath makes this explicit.) Besides permitting code to compile against classes it might
not have accessible at runtime, I found that this interfered with dynamic analysis of the compile-time classpath for purposes of <http://wiki.netbeans.org/AutomaticProjects>.
Since changing the default would be incompatible, it seemed better to warn about what was almost always a mistake. This is analogous to the warning printed when you
neglect to set a source level and Ant defaults to the version of the executing JDK.
(not too sure if this was added in ant 1.8 or ant 1.8.1)
1.8.0.
