I was whipping up a temporary build file to run javadoc against some source that
I had no API documentation for.  When I wrote it up, I didn't realize that I
added the <javadoc> stuff, but didn't actually wrap it in a target.  I ran it
and it actually worked, but then Ant reported....

  [javadoc] 132 warnings

BUILD FAILED
Target `javadoc' does not exist in this project.


The API docs were actually generated.  This seems pretty weird.  Here's a
generic example of what the build file looked like that ought to have been
invalid, but worked...

<project name="blah" basedir=".">

  <javadoc
           destdir="docs/api"
           author="true"
           version="true"
           use="true"
           windowtitle="Test API">

    <packageset dir="src" defaultexcludes="yes">
      <include name="com/dummy/test/**" />
      <exclude name="com/dummy/test/doc-files/**"/>
    </packageset>

    <doctitle><![CDATA[<h1>Test</h1>]]></doctitle>
    <bottom><![CDATA[<i>Copyright &#169; 2000 Dummy Corp. All Rights
Reserved.</i>]]></bottom>
    <tag name="todo" scope="all" description="To do:" />
    <group title="Group 1 Packages" packages="com.dummy.test.a*"/>
    <group title="Group 2 Packages"
packages="com.dummy.test.b*:com.dummy.test.c*"/>
    <link offline="true" href="http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.2/docs/api/"
packagelistLoc="C:\tmp"/>
    <link
href="http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/products/xml/docs/api/"/>
  </javadoc>

</project>


Shouldn't this have failed outright?
