A couple more things:
* the installation script copies MS DOS batch scripts to $out/bin, which
we could do without.
* there are many launcher scripts for Ant: bash scripts, perl scripts,
Python scripts ... Does ant-minimal need to get perl and python as
inputs or can we do without these additional dependencies?
* to use Ant without problems ANT_HOME and JAVA_HOME really should be
set appropriately (ANT_HOME to $out of the ant-minimal package,
JAVA_HOME to $out of icedtea6). Should I suggest these two paths as
search paths by adding something like this to ant-minimal (for
ANT_HOME) and icedtea6 (for JAVA_HOME)?
(native-search-paths
(list (search-path-specification
(variable "ANT_HOME")
(files '(".")))))
