You are attempting to use the javac task without having a tools.jar on the
Ant runtime classpath.
The java_home error is misdirecting as Ant assumes you are running from the
commandline.
So the easiest solution is to add a tools.jar to the Ant classpath using the
Ant preferences from your D:\j2sdk1.4.1_0\lib.
For other possibilities see http://eclipsewiki.swiki.net/118#compiler

Note: These type of questions are better asked on the eclipse.tools
newsgroup as this forum is more for ant development discussions.
