It seems that Debian's junit4.jar package (junit4 4.7-2) does not
contain the org.hamcrest symbols, but they are indeed part of junit
upstreams JAR files.  There is a README.Debian file explaining that to
use junit4 with ant in debian, I need to manually modify the build.xml
file to specifically reference junit4.jar.  Sigh.
