libgcj is an approach to make Sun's Java runtime environment not
necessary. So it does not provide that for all situations where Java is
required.

Where does JPackage.org packages break things? As far as I see you
didn't install Sun's j2re from the skeleton src.rpm. Please do that. If
you don't install an alternate to the libgcj with its placeholder you
can complain as much as you want but won't come further.
Please follow the howto

http://fedoranews.org/mediawiki/index.php/JPackage_Java_for_FC4

and switch to the freshly installed j2re using the alternatives command
/ mechanism. If you installed ant cleanly from JPackage.org repository
you should have no problem then to use it.
