Apparently things aren't quite as bad as I thought.
The java and javac placeholders end with execs to GNU commands.
I just got depressed before I got to the output from GNU.
That said, things still aren't working.

nfs/work/s61> ant
libgcj-java-placeholder.sh

This script is a placeholder for the /usr/bin/java
master link required by jpackage.org conventions.  libgcj's
rmiregistry, rmic and jar tools are now slave symlinks to these
masters, and are managed by the alternatives(8) system.

This change was necessary because the rmiregistry, rmic and jar tools
installed by previous versions of libgcj conflicted with symlinks
installed by jpackage.org JVM packages.

Part of the problem is that I don't remember for sure.
The GNU java stuff was installed with FC3.
I installed ant from jpackage with yum.
I thought that I'd installed ant-contrib,
but I don't see it in installed.

My recollection is that I edited /etc/yum.repos.d
after ant and before something else.
