Well, the error handling in p4base is only as good as the reporting from p4
and yes, it does need a bit of sorting out. I use the -s flag to get p4 to
add info: error: exit: etc to its output. However, if the p4 command is
badly formed, then you just get "Perforce client error"...

Try running p4 -s  on the commandline (you should get some help text). If
this fails then it's your p4 client that needs upgrading to at least V99.2
(p4 -V will give you your version) Look for the line that says something
like "Rev. P4/NTX86/2000.2/19837 (2001/01/03)."

Also, make sure you have the latest Ant-P4 source (grab a nightly build) I'm
not aware of any problems with 1.3 but you may have found one :-)
