I remember my build completing wrongly when I called ant directly. I believ it is recommended practice to build by executing the build.sh or build.bat script rather than invoking ant. (just run the script with no command line args) Also, you are probably better off using the svn tree in https://svn.jboss.org/repos/jbossas/tags/JBoss_5_1_0_Beta1/ The 5_x tree you checked out is the branch from which this tag was obtained. Obviously, since it is a branch it is not totally stable whereas the tag will not have changed from when it was made and is (should be :) guaranteed to build.
