Hi, while investigating the history of Bug 17883 (I thought that the stuff hadn't worked in 1.4.1 either, I was wrong) I realized that this build file
<project default="seq"> <target name="seq"> <sequential> <property name="foo" value="bar"/> <echo>${foo}</echo> </sequential> </target> </project> will print seq: [echo] ${foo} BUILD SUCCESSFUL with CVS HEAD. You get bar instead of ${foo} with Ant 1.4 up to 1.5.2 (or HEAD of the 1.5 branch for that matter). I could commit a testcase to proof this, but wanted to state the problem here before we get the same Gump test failure mail for weeks. Stefan
