Um, do you really mean to define the same target twice? That doesn't flow
very well.
The way that I think it should be solved is via a "execute-target" task.
<target name="main">
<execute-target name="foo" if="property.foo"/>
</target>
<target name="foo" depends="bar, bap">..</target>
Having it as just a task means that nothing else gets done unless the
property is set to 1 or true.
