I may be missing something in what you're trying to do but it seems to me that the usual way to control the compiler Ant uses is via the Ant script itself. Specifying compiler="javac1.4" might be enough for your case. If you want to compile against the 1.4 classpath, specifying the compiler executable (fork="yes", executable=whatever) might be what you need. Here's what I use for one of my scripts that requires the 1.4 compiler.
<javac
fork="yes"
executable="${build.compiler.exe}"
compiler="javac1.4"

...
</javac>
