Has this bug been reported yet?
Run "ant init clean" and you get an NPE. Basically, Ant will not run
multiple targets, which is a pretty huge limitation.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<project name="AntNPE" default="init">
<target name="init">
<echo id="test">test</echo>
</target>
<target name="clean" depends="init"/>
</project>
