"If you want to run directory1/mybuild.xml, directory2/mybuild.xml, ...., use
the antfile
attribute. The subant task does not set the base directory for you in this
case, because
you can specify it in each build file."

Properties are immutable - first wins.
And the first should be the value you pass into - but just try it out.

Relative paths are relative to ${basedir}.
${basedir} is set by Ant even if you dont specify it as attribute. It´s the
directory
of the build.xml.
