Where does 'make sanity' look for the ANT version?

Hi all,

So I'm building new VMs to try the various OpenJDK builds and have run
across a pretty consistent problem using Lubuntu 11.10 (32-bit) with
the detection of ANT.

I have ANT 1.8.2 installed (Ant 1.7 is clearly removed) but 'make
sanity' insists that the ANT version I have is 1.7.0.

* My DEVTOOLS_PATH is pointing at /usr/bin which has the correct version of ANT
* When I set ANT_HOME (export ANT_HOME=/usr/share/ant) before running
'make sanity' it doesn't appear to take hold (the output from make
sanity shows ANT_HOME to be blank)

I'm not sure where else it might be reading this from, does anyone
where I should go spelunking to see where it makes this check?

Cheers,
Martijn
