ant task failure leaves empty file #168

When the pipeline fails to run (i.e., the pipeline is invalid), the file specified by "out" always exists but is empty. I expect the output file to be deleted.

For example,

<c:calabash in="syllabus.xhtml" out="${web.dir}/index.xhtml" pipeline="wrapper.xpl"/>

If the 'wrapper.xpl' has a syntax error, the '${web.dir}/index.xhtml' will still exist.

  1. This feature was added after my original pull request.
  2. If the file existed before the failing pipeline run, should the old file be left unchanged or deleted?
