Thanks Peter. That occurred to me as well; unfortunately, I can't sell 
retrofitting hundreds of build.xml files in order to make this optional 
target stuff happen.

Going forward you're absolutely right: all the subprojects should be using 
a common import & we plan to do that in a future release; the main issue 
is that these subprojects predate import support & the sheer volume of 
them means that a retrofitting effort will take too long and introduce too 
much risk to an effort that the bosses want done yesterday...
