This might work with multiproject (I haven't verified this) but if you do a build for a subproject itself it does't work. Maybe this is a bug or an oversight, but I think this is really necessary. Currently there is no properties inheritence and I believe the build.properties in a user's home should only be used to override the defaults. It shouldn't be mandatory for the build.
