Sounds like what you REALLY want to do is the <parallel> task. This
allows you to specify multiple tasks that can take place at the same
time. The <parallel> task will wait for each to complete before
continuing.
There's no need for a flag or a loop.
<target name="db_deploy">
<yadda>
<yadda>
<yadda>
</target>
<target name="code_deploy">
<yadda>
<yadda>
<yadda>
</target>
<target name="deploy_and_restart_servers">
<parallel>
<ant target="db_deploy"/>
<ant target="code_deploy"/>
</parallel>
<yadda task="Start Servers/>
</target>
