The good and bad thing about ant is the build file is XML. Good,
because you don't have that strange situation where Make will barf
strangely because of a space in front of a tab, but because it's well,
XML.

And since it's Java it runs everywhere... Getting a GNU compatible
make on Windows used to be a PITA - might well still be for all I know
