We do support the "basedir" attribute of the <project> element. We just
don't support the basedir property.
You should either use the project::get-base-directory() or the
nant.project.basedir property
Eg.
<echo message="base dir = ${project::get-base-directory()}" />
<echo message="base dir = ${nant.project.basedir}" />

We're not planning on introducing a basedir property, as you can use
one of the alternatives mentioned above.
