You should carefully read the ant manual for <java> re the difference
between
 <arg value=
and
 <arg line=

Using value= is equivalent to quoting that value on the command line:
  java "-o filename.tini"
vs
  java -o filename.tini

try
  <arg value="-o"/>
  <arg value="filename.tini"/>
  ....

Regards,

Simon
