Why would you want to change ant ??? Re. source folders versus modules - we can have both of them, it's not exclusive. Single source tree makes it easy to navigate, more IDE-friendly, etc. The build file can compile as many modules as needed - either by compiling a subset of the tree, or by compiling the entire tree and generating several modules.
IMO it is a bad practice to scatter sources around without very good reason. JDK sources don't seem to be scattered in modules like 'io', 'net', but in packages, and modules for platform-specific stuff. Having a single source tree would also greatly simplify the ant file, and with eclipse it can completely skip the compilation task ( i.e. if the ant file uses the same build/classes dir as eclipse, it'll detect the already-compiled classes and just create the jars, while eclipse can keep the source updated on save ).
