Hi Bernhard,

sorry for the long wait on this. Both the linking and the execution
flag (though I don't think it's needed either) are both really
weaknesses in Java and therefore ant. The only way to force this to
happen is to make calls like <exec>chmod</exec> which we can do if
necessary, but is less than ideal.

If you think the manual linking is odious, please speak up. Obviously,
if it's a pain, we want to make it go away as soon as possible, but
I've been hoping that other build changes (like the move to scons,
etc.) will bring with them some easier way to manage this.

As always, thanks for the feedback.
~Josh.
