JDeveloper 11_1_1_4_0 does not recognize Apache-Ant-1_8_2

Within a project, I am trying to use the latest Apache Ant.
So Project Properties | Ant | Options, I specify the Apache-Ant-1.8.2 directory.
I get an error dialog stating that I need to specify a proper Ant Home. ("You must specify a valid Ant Home.")

When I point to Apache-Ant-1.8.1, the version information is displayed below the Ant Home Text field.
("Apache Ant version 1.8.1 compiled on April 30 2010")

From a windows command prompt I can call
ant -version
which returns
Apache Ant(TM) version 1.8.2 compiled on December 20 2010

Perhaps the "(TM)" is confusing JDeveloper?

It seems that if I manually change the ant version in the .jpr file, then JDeveloper falls back to it's internal version of ant. This is not good because we have added libraries to our deployment of ant...

Anyone know of a way around this?
