Most of the exec, io and compress stuff is older. I wrote the initial version of the zip package in 2001 and Thomas Haas and Conor MacNeill did most of the exec things in summer 2000 shortly before Ant 1.1, for example. Ant removed @author tags in March 2004 which should give you an idea of when the split happened. Let me know if you need help navigating Ant's code. > Happy to report back fixes, but I'm doing almost a blackbox approach > for getting the plexus stuff back to the ASF.

I'm glad I don't share your problems ;-) Seriously, I am subscribed to maven-dev and was aware of what you are doing and your approach likely is the best you can do to support existing plugins.
