Hi Alexey,
Thanks for your reply. I would like to dispute what you
mention. Here's what happens in a bit more detail demarcated
by two lines of plus signs, within which my comments are in
angular brackets.

Bootstrap FAILED
[tsakai@(protected) apache-ant-1.7.0]$
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In my very limited understanding, what it's trying to do is to get
ant into a state (this is called bootstrap) so that it can do more
work by invoking that ant. Alas, I can't get it to bootsrap, it
seems.
Any suggestion, arguments?

I do not think you need to download any jars, if you are building ANT
for yourself - you have to have all necessary jars already to run ANT.
I have an automated script to build ANT. First, the script empties
CLASSPATH, sets JAVA_HOME and PATH. Then copies all necessary jars into
$ANT_DIR/lib/optional folder, deletes $ANT_DIR/bootstrap, and runs
"call build.bat distribution".
There can be additional steps to make ANT to forget about any previously
installed ANT on your system.
