After a little more testing, one thing I did notice was an
apparent stricter treatment of property expansion.
With 1.8.1, having an arg to a forked java task like this:

<arg value="-DskipFetch=${skipFetch}"/>

was happily ignored if skipFetch wasn't defined.
With 1.8.2, we now get a failed build with reason:

Property skipFetch was circularly defined.

The fix was to add a default property defn but it seems
like such a behavior change in a minor update release
should warrant an entry in the WHATSNEW at least?

Cheers, Paul.

No official vote for me but just as feedback, Ant 1.8.2 built
the latest Groovy with no problems and the (albeit humble)
AntBuilder tests all ran fine.

Cheers, Paul.

Do you want to release these artefacts as Apache Ant 1.8.2 ?
