Hi again,
I found how to overcome this problem : I first try to run xgettext2
with <exec> task and with only one arg (--help) abd with attributes
failifexecutionfails="false" resultproperty="xxx" just to check for
xgettext2 existence.
Then I can use <apply> if xgettext2 exists.
To me, it really seems to be a bug in failifexecutionfails="false" for
the <apply> task. It doesn't work, at least not in the same way of the
<exec> task.
