Hmm, after paying attention to the output, I've noticed that the 
messages are still not showing up.
I have a bunch of other messages among which the Ant ones suppose to 
appear, and that made me think it worked.
Sorry for the confusion.
So, going back to your question.
I'm using "java -jar startup.jar -application ..." to start the 
application. Now I'm setting the logger, 
AntRunner.addBuildLogger("org.apache.tools.ant.DefaultLogger")
but still nothing.
