We have projects A and B.  To build B I want to request that A has
been built, but I really don't care for its output.  I just want to
influence the build order, that's all.  In that case I'd use

<depend project="A"><noclasspath/></depend> 

in B's descriptor.

No idea, really.

Most likely building A has side-effects that I'm interested in.  But
at least in "traditional" the construct above will start the build of
B even if building of A has failed.  That means that I have no
guarantee that the side-effect has actually been achieved.
