Another possible way to do this in version 1.3 would
be to set up a different property for each OS, and
then test for the existence of that property.
Your command line would read...
... -Dlinux=true ...
or
... -Dwindows=true ...
The value after the property ("true") would only exist
for documentation and wouldn't be used.
In Ant you would then code...
<target name="processLinux" if="linux">
...
</target>
<target name="processWindows" if="windows">
...
</target>
<target name="processOS">
<antcall target="processLinux"/>
<antcall target="processWindows"/>
</target>
