Actually the problem was the org.hamcrest package.  If anyone else runs
into the same, I solved it by installing the "libhamcrest-java" debian
package and then fixing up the installation like this:

mocca:/usr/share/ant/lib# ln -s ../../java/hamcrest-core.jar .

Possibly the debian package should have added the symlink, other java
packages have symlinks in that directory.
