James, thanks for your suggestion. I tried it, and it produces the same behavior as
<property name="arg.one" value="argument that has a literal &quot; as part of its value" />


Namely, the actual argument Ant passes is "argument that has a literal " as part of its value", including the surround quotations.

So, if I do an echo for each variable passed to the bat script, the single argument actually gets broken up into 6 pieces:
1: "argument that has a literal "
2: as
3: part
4: of
5: its
6: value"


Thanks anyhow. I guess this isn't all that critical to my project. I should focus on other parts of work. :)

But if someone has a solution or suggestion, I'd be glad to try it.
