There might be but it depends on how/where your bash resource files are
loaded.  Typically you will have a .bash_profile that then checks the
existence of .bashrc and then sources it if it exists.  Your .bash_profile
may probably sources a system wide  profile like "/etc/bash_profile".
However if you run echo $JAVA_HOME on your command line and you see the
right stuff then your login shell is fine.  However, subshells are not login
shells unless you specify it as such.  A login shell will source your
.bash_profile but a non login shell won't!  So if you are running ant like
"bash ./ant" then your environment is not being set correctly.  Also you may
be sourcing a .antrc file somewhere either by your doing or a sourced global
resource file.  Are you familiar with .bash_profile and .bashrc?  If so I
would walk the chain to see exactly what and where things are getting set.
You can also explicitly export JAVA_HOME in your .bashrc (if it is being
sourced) or simply do it in the shell before you run ant.  I checked the ant
script and it uses exec to launch ant so your environment should be getting
passed into ant.  Have you run ant -diagnostics yet?  If so maybe you could
post the output.

Now I've gained some understanding
Of the only world that we see.
Things that I once dreamed of
Have become reality.

These walls that still surround me
Still contain the same old me,
Just one more who's searching for
A world that ought to be.
