And the Ant team knows where to look.  Many thanks for the report,
Curt.  I certainly saw the failure but we've had failing Gump builds
for the tests for so long that I stopped paying attention.

Part of the analysis of this problem shows that our IsGreaterThan
extends Ant's Equals - and we wouldn't see the problem if it didn't.

Looking into IsGreaterThan it overrides each and every method found in
Equals and it would compile and work just as well if it just
implemented Condition directly.  I don't see the class benefitting
from extending Equals at all.  Am I missing something?

The only reason I haven't already made the change I suggested is that
the current state is a good testcase for the proposed changes to Ant.
