Hey Rainer,
Thanks for the pointer, but that tool still doesn't cover my problem.=20
My basic need is have something like a nested <classpath> element for
the <ant> task.=20
I can't specify either of the javamail or jaf jars using taskdef,
because they don't contain ant tasks.=20

Maybe http://enitsys.sourceforge.net/ant-classloadertask/ what you are
looking for.
It allows you to add jars to the project-classloader.
