It's even worse: The architecture-independent build dependencies also 
need to be fulfilled, even though you are just build the 
architecture-dependent parts. I had the same problem with my tomcat4 
package when it built libapache2-mod-webapp in the past.

But I don't know how to fix this: I can now only let common-build-indep 
call Ant but we might use gcj's native compilation in the future so 
common-build-arch will also have to call Ant then. This is more a 
general CDBS problem than a specific problem for the Ant class.

Your case is very special compared to normal Ant-based packages. I think 
you should include ant-vars.mk instead of ant.mk and add the required 
prerequisites to your make targets yourself.
