This is because you may use <import> in a file that itself gets
<import>ed and then basedir would be that of the outer-most project
and not the one of the file you are looking at.

See this note from the manual

which is no longer completely true since we are bound by backwards
compatibility after we've released 1.6.

use <import file="${ant.file.pepe}/../include.xml"/>

instead of

> <project name="pepe" basedir="..">
>     <import file="include.xml"/>
