Which version of Ant?  1.5beta3 has finally gotten it right (in Ant's
sense) - at least unless I've coded up yet another bug. 8-)

Gotten right means that command line properties always win and nested
properties of <ant> win over the <property>s of the called build file.

I think one difference between Ant and NAnt you should consider is
that in Ant *all* properties are read-only, even those defined via
<property> in your build file.
