Odd, I tried building the Deb and that works fine:

wido at wido-laptop:~/repos/libvirt-java$ ant deb
Buildfile: /home/wido/repos/libvirt-java/build.xml

init:
     [mkdir] Created dir: /home/wido/repos/libvirt-java/target/classes
     [mkdir] Created dir: /home/wido/repos/libvirt-java/target/testclasses
     [mkdir] Created dir: /home/wido/repos/libvirt-java/target/cache
      [copy] Copying 1 file to /home/wido/repos/libvirt-java

build:
     [javac] Compiling 64 source files to 
/home/wido/repos/libvirt-java/target/classes

jar:
       [jar] Building jar: 
/home/wido/repos/libvirt-java/target/libvirt-0.5.0.jar

      [exec] dpkg-deb: building package `libvirt-java' in 
`target/libvirt-java_0.5.0_all.deb'.

The problem with the RPM seems to be it executes "ant build docs"

While "build" actually builds the classes, it doesn't generate a JAR file.

It should run:

$ ant jar docs

That produces the correct .jar file in the target directory.
