Issues with Ant on Red Hat linux have come up in the past. Please search
the archives for those discussions. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I
believe the 'which' command will show you which ant executable you
execute (first on your PATH), not all the ant executables on your PATH.
If I recall the previous discussions correctly, the solution was to
uninstall the ant rpm that came with the distro. Check the archives
though, I'm not sure that your issue is the same.
