OK, I've tried flymake since apparently Java & ant are supported, and it can't
find my build file.  The docs mention a `flymake-buildfile-dirs' variable to
customise but it is not in the customisation group, and setting it has no
effect.

I'll take a look, thanks.

Well the first thing would be to have a mode that actually highlights and
indents Java code (including generics, foreach loops, etc).  People have pointed
me at CEDET as well, I'll see if I can set that up.
