gzip: stdin: not in gzip format

1.Download trunk (r667) from sourcecode
2.run ./gridworks from Cygwin bash

The following is returned:

gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
Error while expanding apache-ant-1.8.0-bin.tar.gz

I believe this fails as Ant 1.8.0 is now superseded by 1.8.1 and the 1.8.0 
files moved to the archive directory.

For the 1.8.0 version the URL in /trunk/gridworks should be:
http://www.apache.org/dist/ant/binaries/apache-ant-1.8.0-bin.tar.gz
But this is likely to break at every Ant release cycle.

The stable URL for the 1.8.0 version will be:
http://archive.apache.org/dist/ant/binaries/apache-ant-1.8.0-bin.tar.gz

Patch attached for 1.8.1, using the archive url.
