Probably trouble coping with the detritus from the previous bad builds.
Do an 'ant deinstall clean' in the jniast directory and try again.
If that doesn't work - check you've got a working perl. By default
it picks it up in /stardev/Perl/bin/perl, but if it's not there
you can set the 'perl' property to the path of the perl executable
either by adding a line in your ~/.stardev.properties
perl=/wherever/bin/perl
or on the ant command line
ant -Dperl=/wherever/bin/perl clean build install
The JNIAST build file is not great at getting dependencies right.
This and the perl dependence make it a bit fragile. I've tried
to improve it in the past and only managed to break things.
I am planning to remove the perl dependence in most cases (by
checking built files into the repository) at some point so long
term things should improve.
