It may be a tad bit more complex than that since Ant's regexp
testsuite is included in the jar.  I'll try to move dependencies
around a little to see where we end up.

Fortunately it would not.  If it did, you'd get file sharing
exceptions (at least on Windows) since the jar is on the CLASSPATH and
most JVMs don't like it if you change a jar on the CLASSPATH either.

Ant's test target does not create the jar, it would only compile some
additional classes and the tests get run against the testcases <work>
entry.
