Description

Due to bug MNG-2127, it can be tricky to launch Maven from within Ant correctly and extract the correct exit value on all operating systems. A great solution would be to implement a <maven> task in the Maven Tasks for Ant. This code would be able to correctly and simply construct Maven's classpath (using the classes already baked into maven-artifact-ant-*-dep.jar) and execute arbitrary goals on arbitrary POMs.
