subtasks not initialized in Taskdef

           Summary: subtasks not initialized in Taskdef
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.4
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core tasks
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


I have this build.xml fragment (p = parallel, s = sequential):

    <p>
      <p>
        <echo>P3 start</echo>
      </p>
      <s>
        <echo>P3 start</echo>
        <sleep seconds="2"/>
        <echo>P3 done</echo>
      </s>
    </p>

If <p> and <s> is defined in default.properties
(p=org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.MyParallel) it works fine. But if I define it
in <taskdef> (
    <taskdef name="p" 
             classname="org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.MyParallel"
             />)
build process fails:
