Use <property name="parent.dir" location="${basedir}"/>

The point being that the 'location' variant of <property> is what you're after for parent/child builds that need to pass paths around. The above example is merely that, and may not reflect exactly what you need, but its the idea.

When I build my system from the top-level, there are certain libraries
relative to the top level that lower-level modules need.  I need to pass
that information to lower-level builds.  At the top level, I have my
"basedir", which is set to ".", but in the lower levels, I need to expand
that to an absolute path.  Is this a reasonable thing to try to do, and if
so, how can I do this?
