Whoever claims he is Java developer AND unaware of ant cannot be a 
professional.  Also: sticking with a known strategy for too long instead 
of knowing when to check other approaches is not a winning strategy.

But there is something wrong with claiming "gnumake can do so many more 
things than just build source code" - because it does not even compile 
source code.

Maybe or really?  Please provide a proper static pattern rule which does 
a similar job as ant does.  As far as I can see still get one javac 
invocation per .java file.  This is hugely less efficient than what ant 
does.
