We are on a secure network behind a firewall, so all repositories are on our file system, and our internal jars do not have version numbers attached. The resolve is done with resolveMode="dynamic" in two different ant steps, first for conf="compile" and then conf="test", where conf "test" extends conf "compile" indirectly via another conf called "runtime". That is, "test" extends "runtime" extends "compile". The infinite loop occurs during the 2nd resolve, for conf="test". This is just a build, so "runtime" isn't explicitly resolved for. There are several dependencies found before this one that work fine, i.e., I see many "acquiring lock", "lock acquired", "reentrant lock acquired", "reentrant lock released", "lock released on" messages before it gets to this one. This dependency is correctly resolved for conf="compile", i.e., it is not a conf="test" only dependency. If I kill ant with C-c and then ant again, this time the loop occurs during the first resolve. If I remove the line the build completes just fine. I hope this is enough information. As I said, this build is for proprietary software, so it would take me a while to duplicate the problem with a stripped down setup.
