You didn't read my note totally right .. I said I don't believe
people should be doing "ant *dist*". That's the mechanism for
building a *distribution*. If they want to build from src and
do stuff with it then its fine. Ideally we should include a 
different build.xml with the src distribution without the
"dist" target.
