Can you please file a bug report for this issue
(https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=add&group_id=31650&atid=402868) and
add a zip file containing all files necessary to reproduce this problem ?

I agree that we shouldn't generate an error in this case, but there was a
discussion on this topic a while back and I'm pretty sure some people were
against changing this behaviour ...
You could indeed set failonerror to false, but even then a warning is being
output (which, in my opinion, is not necessary) ...

Add all property definitions to a separate build file, and include that file
in your main build file (using the <include> task)
