Jack,
    Thanks for this information.  Although we have been in dialog with
kaffe folks regarding rmic for months now, specifically in regards to
building Lucene, this thread has not been mentioned.  We have
experienced the rmic issue you describe.  Until now, Ant's rmic adaptor
for kaffe was totally unsuspected.  The kaffe team has the merge of the
current classpath rmic in the queue for kaffe, and that is what we have
been waiting for in our attempt to move lucene to main.  See Bug #272295
for the history of this.
    If this fix for Ant is just now in Ant's cvs head, perhaps we should
make a patch for it and incorporate that into Debian's ant package.
Excellent work; thanks for finding this and taking the time to report.

Regards,
