Please file a bug. I think the current logic was created to work around
problems on some weird platforms (VMS?) and it does not work reasonable
on "normal" systems.

Hi Ant Users,
I have the following trivial build.xml.
<project name="test">
<echo message="param is ${param}"/>
</project>
I am trying to pass "foo=bar" as param value
ant -Dparam="foo=bar"
Unexpectedly, I get:
Buildfile: build.xml
[echo] param is foo
BUILD FAILED
Target `bar' does not exist in this project.
The same happens if I try to pass param="foo;bar".
I tried the same with a trivial java program, and it works as expected.
Thank you,
Vladimir Egorov
