building glassfish from source bundle vs cvs/maven checkout

i can and have built glassfish by following the instructions on
http://wiki.glassfish.java.net/Wiki.jsp?page=BuildInformation#qs;

but i cannot get a successful build by simply grabbing a source bundle -- like
glassfish-v2ur2-b04-src.zip and building from bootstrap unmodified other than adding/editing the build.properties file;

also if i delete bootstrap and then cvs checkout boostrap i also cannot build
without error.

i only get successful build by cvs checkout of bootstrap, then maven checkout
where i dont have any source already installed.

why cant i build from the zipped source bundle?
