I've managed to solve the problem:  While I was trying various things to
get it to work, I ran ant with the -debug flag, and noticed things that
looked odd in the properties that are displayed; sure enough, it turns out
that what I thought was a straight-up JDK 1.2.2 turned out to be a
"release candidate" from blackdown.org.  After installing the official Sun
JDK, the problems went away.

My thanks for the help.
