I did exactly what you now tried; checkout the whole Apache project,
build framework and build compiler.
The only difference I see here is you are on OSX, but I think Carol is to.
I just ran my tests from the compiler.tests/build.xml and all passed.
Unfortunately, without sitting next to you and looking, I have no idea
what is going wrong. I bet it is something small and ridiculous though.

Quoting Erik de Bruin <e...@ixsoftware.nl>:
Latest news:
- I got myself a new working copy of the entire Flex SVN repo, so I
don't need to mess with paths etc. anymore.
- I did a build of the SDK in 'branches/develop' without problems.
- I did a build of the Falcon compiler ('ant main' in trunk) and got
the EXACT SAME results as before, i.e. jUnit test fail and I get some
warnings!
- switching from ant 1.8 to 1.7.1 made the "includeantruntime"
warning go away
- the build file in 'compiler' is looking for 'flexTasks.jar' in the
"ant/lib" directory of the SDK which, on my machine at least, does not
exist; changing all references to "ant/lib" to "lib" (3x), where that
jar does exist, makes the last warning go away;
- I created a JIRA ticket [1] and attached the output of 'ant main'
(after an 'ant wipe') to it.
Now, if these tests need to pass on my system before I can start
contributing, I need some input. If solving the reason why they fail
is some sort of initiation rite, it's going to take me a bit more time
to get into the 'inner circle' ;-)

Ok,
I did a super-clean and main on the SDK, was successful.
Did a wipe and main on the compiler and compiler.tests, no luck.
I've piped the results of the compiler main to a text file. If anyone
is interested, I'll create a JIRA ticket and attache that file to it.

Thank you! I already figured out the first 3, but not the
'sdk.branch', good suggestion.

Hi,
I have followed the various instructions and was able to successfully
build the Falcon compiler. Along the way I encountered several issues
that are not yet documented (I'm on OS X 10.8):
- I needed to edit the 'build.xml' file on line 50, to point the
'sdk.branch' property to the correct location of the SDK on my system;
- when trying to use the mxmlc on a project, I got 'permission
denied'. Setting the executable bit on the file corrected that;
I'm running on OS X 10.7. If you follow the instructions in the
falcon/trunk/README you should not have to make any edits to build.xml
assuming your directory tree looks like it does in svn.
Before trying to build Falcon, you must:
1. Build the the "develop" branch of the SDK at
incubator/flex/sdk/branches/develop by doing 'ant main'.
See the README there for instructions.
2. Set the environment variables JAVA_HOME, ANT_HOME, and
PLAYERGLOBAL_HOME as when building the SDK.
3. Set the environment variable JFLEX_JAR to point to the JAR file for
JFlex 1.4.3.
sdk.branch is set to <property name="sdk.branch"
value="${compiler}/../../../sdk/branches/develop"/>. If this is not the
case for you, rather than edit build.xml invoke it with
ant -Dsdk.branch=/path/to/sdk
or add falcon/complier/local.properties and set sdk.branch in there.
