I guess you get hit when ant tries to log.
do ftp.setProject(project);
before you start the execution, it should be better.
Also, I do not know why you make your class extend FTP, using it is good 
enough.

here an example of ant api usage based on an existing build.xml file

public class testcvsversion {
    public static void main (String [] argv){
        Diagnostics.validateVersion();
        String filename="/dev/testant/cvsversion.xml";
        StringBuffer logBuffer;
        StringBuffer fullLogBuffer;
        Project project=new Project();
        logBuffer = new StringBuffer();
        fullLogBuffer = new StringBuffer();
        project = new Project();
        project.init();
        project.setUserProperty( "ant.file" , new 
File(filename).getAbsolutePath() );
        ProjectHelper.configureProject(project, new File(filename));
        project.addBuildListener(createLogger());
    }
    private static BuildLogger createLogger() {
        BuildLogger logger = null;
        logger = new DefaultLogger();
        logger.setMessageOutputLevel(Project.MSG_INFO);
        logger.setOutputPrintStream(System.out);
        logger.setErrorPrintStream(System.err);
        logger.setEmacsMode(false);

        return logger;
    }
