Changing target from 1.4 to 1.5 in the build.xml file fixed it.  Thanks!

Next step, where can I find the javacc class for ant?

      [java]      [java] BUILD FAILED
      [java]      [java]

Could not create task or type of type: javacc.

      [java]      [java] Ant could not find the task or a class this 
task relies upon.

      [java]      [java] This is common and has a number of causes; the 
usual
      [java]      [java] solutions are to read the manual pages then 
download and
      [java]      [java] install needed JAR files, or fix the build file:
      [java]      [java]  - You have misspelt 'javacc'.
      [java]      [java]    Fix: check your spelling.
      [java]      [java]  - The task needs an external JAR file to execute
      [java]      [java]      and this is not found at the right place 
in the classpath.
      [java]      [java]    Fix: check the documentation for dependencies.
      [java]      [java]    Fix: declare the task.
      [java]      [java]  - The task is an Ant optional task and the JAR 
file and/or libraries
      [java]      [java]      implementing the functionality were not 
found at the time you
      [java]      [java]      yourself built your installation of Ant 
from the Ant sources.
      [java]      [java]    Fix: Look in the ANT_HOME/lib for the 'ant-' 
JAR corresponding to the
      [java]      [java]      task and make sure it contains more than 
merely a META-INF/MANIFEST.MF.
      [java]      [java]      If all it contains is the manifest, then 
rebuild Ant with the needed
      [java]      [java]      libraries present in 
${ant.home}/lib/optional/ , or alternatively,
      [java]      [java]      download a pre-built release version from 
apache.org
      [java]      [java]  - The build file was written for a later 
version of Ant
      [java]      [java]    Fix: upgrade to at least the latest release 
version of Ant
      [java]      [java]  - The task is not an Ant core or optional task
      [java]      [java]      and needs to be declared using <taskdef>.
      [java]      [java]  - You are attempting to use a task defined using
      [java]      [java]     <presetdef> or <macrodef> but have spelt 
wrong or not
      [java]      [java]    defined it at the point of use

      [java]      [java] Remember that for JAR files to be visible to 
Ant tasks implemented
      [java]      [java] in ANT_HOME/lib, the files must be in the same 
directory or on the
      [java]      [java] classpath

      [java]      [java] Please neither file bug reports on this 
problem, nor email the
      [java]      [java] Ant mailing lists, until all of these causes 
have been explored,
      [java]      [java] as this is not an Ant bug.
