Properties are kind of a first-come-first-served type thing -- the first
one to set the property wins. If you define a property on the
command-line, that value will be what the property is set to. If you allow
for a ${user.home}/ant.properties file that users can set properties in
that would otherwise have a default value, and ${user.home}/ant.properties
gets read in before those properties get set some other way, the values in
the user's ant.properties will be what the properties get set to.
