1.6.1 -- where is "optional.jar "

1.6.1 -- where is "optional.jar "

I built 1.6.1 from source and get the following error when running my build ...
so I wonder,
"where is optional.jar" since it doesn't seem to get built in the 1.6.1. build
... PS all the
dependencies for the Script task such as the latest bsf.jar and js.jar are
there. TIA.


    BUILD FAILED
    /usr/local/work/jax/jazmin/build/build.xml:328: Following error occured
while ex
    ecuting this line
    /usr/local/work/jax/jazmin/build/build_compile.xml:42: Could not create
task or
    type of type: script.

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

    This is common and has a number of causes; the usual
    solutions are to read the manual pages then download and
    install needed JAR files, or fix the build file:
     - You have misspelt 'script'.
       Fix: check your spelling.
     - The task needs an external JAR file to execute
       and this is not found at the right place in the classpath.
       Fix: check the documentation for dependencies.
       Fix: declare the task.
     - The task is an Ant optional task and optional.jar is absent
       Fix: look for optional.jar in ANT_HOME/lib, download if needed
     - The task was not built into optional.jar as dependent
       libraries were not found at build time.
       Fix: look in the JAR to verify, then rebuild with the needed
       libraries, or download a release version from apache.org
     - The build file was written for a later version of Ant

     - The task is not an Ant core or optional task
       and needs to be declared using <taskdef>.

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