Summary: <call> task's effect on depends attribute

Initial Comment:
The documentation should clearly state that beginning 
with version 0.85 when you use the call task, not only 
does it force the specified target to be built, but it also 
forces all targets that the specified target depends on 
to be built, even if they were previously built.  This is a 
breaking change.  

In my case, I have many targets that depend on 
an "init" target.  Some of these I <call> several times, 
but I expect "init" to be executed only once.  With the 
upgrade to 0.85, "init" is getting called several times.  At 
first, it seems that NAnt has gone patholically mad and 
is executing targets randomly.

Gert mentioned the following work-around which should 
also be documented:

<target name="A" unless="${target::has-executed
('A')}" />
