If you can provide a patch that allows Ant to pump the streams while
still alive, and doesn't prevent it from exiting normally as usual,
we'll sure consider it. This stuff is usually platform-dependent and
difficult to get right though. --DD
yes, spawning deliberately discards everything as its the only way to
stop the process blocking when ant dies. Its really there for people
that want to use ant as a launcher of apps, rather than a build tool.
use fork=true spawn=false to debug; switch to spawn afterwards.
