Maybe.

For 1.7.0 we simply didn't realize that we made junit a hard
dependency and thus never thought about adding it to the release.

Personally I'd prefer to make it optional again for 1.7.1 and simply
skip ant-testutil.jar if it's not there in the same way we skip
creating any of the optional tasks.  But this is a discussion for the
dev list.
