The build.properties.sample props only work if you have a m2 local
repo.  I would prefer to leave as is so user knows what they are
doing.  The alternative would be to add Ant get-deps to grab from
public repos and dispense with need for local properties.

Personally, I would prefer to keep them separate as the Ant build
also does source manipulations and I can see scenarios where one
could get confused.
