Summary: property gets expanded prior to if test in exec task's arg

Initial Comment:
The uploaded file demonstrates the bug. Here is a copy:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> 
<project name="bug">
        <exec program="cmd.exe">
                <arg value="/c" />
                <arg value="echo" />
                <arg value="${hello}" 
if="${property::exists('hello')}" />
                <arg value="ah" />
        </exec>
</project>

I expect nant to not evaluate ${hello} when the test in 
the if attribute fails. Here follows the output of a couple 
of trial runs:
