[antlr-interest] 2.7.6 makes more output files than 2.7.5?

I'd have to dig up the notes, but the folks I chatted with said that the
new ant policy was that tool-specific tasks should be deployed with the
tool; they didn't want tool-specific tasks to be part of ant (nasty
maintenance...). I told them I'd work with Ter to get a new ant task
deployed with antlr.

However, the changes I was going to have in the ant task became moot once
I split out ANTXR (http://javadude.com/tools/antxr) from ANTLR, so I
dropped the whole thing.

The current task that comes with ant should still work (other than the
regression test breakage that you fixed).

Sorry for the confusion!
