I did not find any way to set the classpath from within the antlr
task.  In my ANT classpath, I have 'antlr_2.7.1.jar' set.  Instead,
in the antlr task, you have to set the directory you want to start
the antlr task in.  This directory has to have have the expanded
directory stucture will all the class files accessible.  The reason
this occurs is because the classpath used for the run
'antlr.Tool.main()' is set to "." (presumably).   This would be
fine if I was working by myself, but it's not practical in a
multi-developer environment.
