Summary: StringIndexOutOfBoundsException

Initial Comment:
cpptask throws an StringIndexOutOfBoundsException
in net.sf.antcontrib.cpptasks.types.LibrarySet.setLibs(LibrarySet.java:176)
whenever a lib with a name shorter than 3 characters 
is specified in a libset.

To reproduce:
<target ...>
  <cc ...>
    ...
    <libset libs="dv"/>
    ...
  </cc>
</target>

The offending code line is (LibrarySet.java:176):

  if (libnames[i].substring(0,3).equalsIgnoreCase("lib")) {

which assumes a minimal name length of 3. This is nonsense since there are numerous libraries whose main name is only one or 2 characters long (e.g. libGL.so, libz.so, ...).

Either omit the check (since what happens with liblib.so ???) or use:
  if (libnames[i].toLowerCase().startsWith("lib")) {
