hmm... no idea what would cause this.
maybe try giving configure the argument: --with-ant-home=/cygdrive/c/ant

if that does not help, try editing the configure script at the line that
prints the message above, and "echo" what ant program it is trying to
call, maybe that would show what is going wrong...

it seems the configure script does not care about ANT_HOME
