I just checked. What happens is that anakia reads velocity.properties,
which tells it to look for the templates in the ../site/src/stylesheets
directory, so anakia itself resolves the docs.vsl reference to
../site/src/stylesheets/docs.vsl. IOW the property to look elsewhere is
in the velocity.properties file.

I just did:

cvs co jakarta-avalon-excalibur jakarta-avalon jakarta-site
cd jakarta-avalon-excalibur/zip
/opt/ant/bin/ant docs

and the docs built properly. It's counterintuitive and a little messy
perhaps, but it works. Can you confirm?

I believe the reason this doesn't work in gump atm is that it checks out
jakarta-site2 as opposed to jakarta-site. Maybe it's a good idea to have
gump do a symlink, just like we have on the server?
