sample build.xml file

I've hit almost the same issue as described in bud #50960. On latest nightly builds (ant 1.8.3alpha and ant 1.9.0alpha) when user inputs a value - he doesn’t see what he's typing until enter button is pressed.
Attached is a simple build.xml file that demonstrates the problem. It creates a
simple Java file that just calls readLine() and echos the input, compiles the
file, and runs it twice: once in a non-forked JVM, which works fine, and again
in a forked JVM, which 'invisible' input.
My java version is 1.6.0_30-b12
