Ok from the ant docs:

·       classic (the standard compiler of JDK 1.1/1.2)
·       modern (the new compiler of JDK 1.3)
·       jikes (the ·    Jikes compiler)
·       jvc (the Command-Line Compiler from Microsoft's SDK for Java / 
Visual J++)

So classic is the JDK 1.1 & 1.2 compilers. I think they (Sun) made some 
major changes in 1.3.

What compiler are you using? Blackdown, kaffe? I know kaffe doesn't work 
with our source full stop (bug on their part).
