I could use some help here.

The Axis build works if I back out Peter's change for Ant.java's
revision 1.84 - and I don't have a good grasp of why this should be
so.

If I do, Ant's CallTargetTest#testMultiCall fails with 
    [junit] expecting log to contain "multi is SETmulti is SET" log was "multi 
is SETmulti is DEFAULT"

The details, so that anybody who wants to help doesn't have to try to
understand the Axis build process.

The starting point is axis/java/buildTest.xml[1] with the target
compileJunit.  The <foreach> is implemented by ForeachTask[2] which is
strange enough in itself.

This task creates a single instance of the Ant task and for each file
in the nested fileset invokes Ant#createProperty to create a property
named file with the absolute file name - it then goes on and executes
the task, invoking the same build file using a target named
compile-component (defined in the entity included targets.xml) which
then dispatches to the named build file.

The last details are irrelevant.

What happens is that with the CVS HEAD version, the property named
file will always have the first file name in each child build file.
If I back out Revision 1.84 it will have the last one, but it looks
more as if the previous <property> would be ignored, rather than that
some kind of override was going on.

I'll look further, but maybe anybody else can see what's happening.
