Sorry for the late reply here - I was hoping someone with more knowledge on
the subject would jump in.  IIRC, the changes Thierry made ages ago to the
build system were for two major reasons:

1.) To prevent the embedded tomcat server from being used
2.) To use system JARs rather than bundling copies

Unfortunately, all attempts to do this with 2.4 ended up with a build that
didn't work.  If you are using their build system and the two problems
above no longer exist/have been solved in another way, please do finish
what you have as gwt is broken right now :-(
