Bug description:
Binary package hint: ant

It reports wrong class format when used with JDK 5. It looks like it was compiled with JDK 6 without javac param -source 1.5 (which implies -target 1.5). It applies to latest ant version in intrepid. Not sure if it is bug or by design. Anyway it is not possible now to build app using JDK 5 with packaged ant so I had to download original upstream binary.
