This is not yet linked into <java> but its the intent, or maybe commandLineJava: a datatype for configuring assertion options. This'll be a fun one to test :)

+/**
+ * implement the assertion datatype. This type describes
+ * assertion settings for the &lt;java&gt; task and derivatives.
+ * One can set the system assertions, and enable/disable those in
+ * packages & classes.
+ * Assertions can only be enabled or disabled when forking Java.
+ *
+ * Example: set system assertions and all org.apache packages except
+ * for ant, and the class org.apache.tools.ant.Main.
+ * <pre>
+ * &lt;assertions enableSystemAssertions="true" &gt;
+ *   &lt;enable package="org.apache" /&gt;
+ *   &lt;disable package="org.apache.ant" /&gt;
+ *   &lt;enable class="org.apache.tools.ant.Main"/&gt;
+ * &lt;/assertions&gt;
+ *</pre>
+ * Disable system assertions; enable those in the anonymous package
+ * <pre>
+ * &lt;assertions enableSystemAssertions="false" &gt;
+ *   &lt;enable package="..." /&gt;
+ * &lt;/assertions&gt;
+ * </pre>
+ * enable assertions in a class called Test 
+ * <pre>
+ * &lt;assertions &gt;
+ *   &lt;enable class="Test" /&gt;
+ * &lt;/assertions&gt;
+ * </pre>
+ * This type is a datatype, so you can declare assertions and use them later
+ *
+ * <pre>
+ * &lt;assertions id="project.assertions" &gt;
+ *   &lt;enable project="org.apache.test" /&gt;
+ * &lt;/assertions&gt;
+ *
+ * &lt;assertions refid="project.assertions" /&gt;
