This problem happens in src/main/org/apache/tools/ant/property/ ResolvePropertyMap.java . Peter, you extracted this class some two years ago, but at the point in the code at which the offense takes place, there is the comment:

        // Note: the master overrides (even if the name is subsequently
        //       prefixed)

I realize it's been awhile, but due to there being a comment to the effect that this behavior is intentional, do you have any recollection of why this was necessary? The behavior reported in BZ does seem counter-intuitive and wrong. Is there some rationalization for why the behavior is correct that I am not grasping?

Thanks,
Matt
