Re: Bug #926: if old postgresql.jar in CLASSPATH, ant fails

Well, it also fails if you have the old postgresql.jar in your java
jre/lib/ext as well and there is no fixed way to exclude it that I know
of. In general, the old jar should not be in any place that is
searched. The user can have his/her CLASSPATH set to some place where
the old jar file is.

On the other hand setting includeAntRuntime="no" would not hurt us
because we are not compiling an Ant (custom) task.
