Description of problem:
I'm trying to compile a project that uses antlr with ant.  It fails like this:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUILD FAILED
build.xml:337: Problem: failed to create task or type antlr
Cause: the class org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.optional.ANTLR was not found.
        This looks like one of Ant's optional components.
Action: Check that the appropriate optional JAR exists in
        -/usr/share/ant/lib
        -/home/jamesjer/.ant/lib
        -a directory added on the command line with the -lib argument

Do not panic, this is a common problem.
The commonest cause is a missing JAR.

This is not a bug; it is a configuration problem
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have the ant-antlr package installed, so ant-antlr.jar *is* in
/usr/share/ant/lib.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ant-antlr-1.8.2-6.fc16.noarch

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Attempt to build an antlr-using project with ant
2.
3.

Actual results:
Ant reports that it cannot find the class in ant-antlr.jar.

Expected results:
Ant is able to find the class.

Additional info:
The problem is that the configuration file is misnamed.  Instead of
/etc/ant.d/antlr, it should be named /etc/ant.d/ant-antlr, and it should
contain this:

ant-antlr ant/ant-antlr

After creating the file with those contents, my project now builds.
