Apache Flex SDK errors when building with ANT

Hi,

I am trying to build the SDK using IntelliJ and it fails with errors such like the one below (8 errors in total)  [ see stack trace below ]

I am using IDEA IntelliJ 12.1.4 and ant 1.8.4 and JDK 1.6.

Running the same build.xml from the cmd line ends sucessfully:
D:\ApacheFlex\git_source\flex-sdk>ant.bat
ANT_OPTS=-Xms256m -Xmx1024m -XX:PermSize=64m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m -XX:MaxHeapSize=512m -XX:+CMSClassUnloadingEnabled -Djava.net
Buildfile: D:\ApacheFlex\git_source\flex-sdk\build.xml

(note: the ANT_OPTS are added at the beginning of ant.bat) .

I tried another simple build.xml under IntelliJ that deletes a non-existing dir, and echoes trace messages.
It completes without any error message.

I tried another build that has the same structure as SDK build, using 3 nested build.xml, called using <ant dir="..." />   and doint the delete at level 3.
Again it was sucessful.

So What's wrong?
should I raise a JIRA for this ?

Simple build.xml:
build.xml source:
<project name="test_delete" default="main" basedir=".">
       <target name="main" >
           <echo message="delete non-existing directory."/>
           <delete dir="notexists" failonerror="false" />
           <echo message="passed the delete." />
       </target>
</project>

build output:
build.xml
main
echo
delete non-existing directory.
delete
echo
passed the delete.

Ant build completed successfully in 0s at 30/09/13 11:39

Nested build.xml
output:

More info:

Build source for the delete in Apache SDK nested build (in frameworks/projects/mx/build.xml)
<target name="clean" depends="bundles-clean">
        <delete failonerror="false">
            <fileset dir="${basedir}" >
                <include name="bundles.properties"/>
                <include name="bundles/en_US/packages.dita"/>
            </fileset>
            <fileset dir="${FLEX_HOME}/frameworks/libs/mx">
                <include name="mx.swc"/>
                <include name="mx.swc.incr"/>
            </fileset>
        </delete>
    </target>

Note:
Actually, the ant build "seems" to be complete, although it signals errors,
so is that delete quiet="false" log trace  is wrongly considered as an error?

Looks like a known issue: http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-56227. No idea why it has not been fixed for so long time. I'll ask responsible developer.
Is it a stopper or just incorrect presentation of a successful build?

I think it's has been partly fixed :), because it does not occur on the simple example provided, and not event on the simpe nested example.
Only the full SDKbuild triggers this option.
Anyway, I checked the full build result by comparing with reference output and it "seems" to be identifical.
I don't know if there are other impacts ...

[edited]
To make things clearer:  It's not a blocker issue, because I know the build is ok.
However, I have to go through the errors, to make sure it's only false "Delete" errors.
Running ant from the command line is an option, but I prefer "integrated" software.
So a fix would be welcome.
