Comment:
What is going on here is that {{{Property("buildnumber")}}} gets rendered
as an int, which then causes the environment substitution to fail later.
Certainly we should have a better error message here, but I'm not sure if
we want to be automatically coercing things to strings. Certainly it is
reasonable for ints, but we don't also want to do it for arbitrary
objects.
A work around is to do {{{WithProperty("%(buildnumber)s")}}}, which does
deliberately coerce things.
