I made the modifications and also tried to enable the tests (see
attached patch), but I discovered that some of the tests are failing
(and some are passing).  Perhaps we should try fixing the tests while
we're here?  If you do

  /pre-inst-env guix build --keep-failed java-aqute-libg

you can see the failures.  The build directory will be kept.  If we go
to it, we can find a report of the test failures under the path:

  bnd-3.4.0.REL/aQute.libg/test/test-reports

Unfortunately, the ant-build-system doesn't compile the classes with
debug info by default.  To enable line numbers etc. in the stack traces,
we'll need to add

  debug="true"

to the relevant <javac> tags, as described here:

https://ant.apache.org/manual/Tasks/javac.html

If you could help debug the failures, that would be nice.  I will also
look as I get time.
