Hello Gary, what you are describing sounds like a bug.
the question is where does the bug happen. A possible candidate would be ant.bat. I suspect that the -noclasspath option is not executed reliably depending upon -quiet comes before -noclasspath or not. -noclasspath is a command line option which is completely processed in ant.bat, not reached to the java code. Actually, a look at the code of ant.bat in ant 1.6.5 shows that the option only works when it is the first argument on the command line. (or I do not understand the full picture). So your build *does not* work when you start it with -noclasspath.
