You can use the "if" or "unless" attributes of a target - in that case
targets will be executed only if a property is set(not set). Example:
<target name="build-module-A" if="module-A-present"/>
Also you can use conditionals, as you said. Example(Something like this):
<condition property="your_property_to_set">
<and>
<isset property="property_to_check" />
<not>
<isset property="your_property_to_check" />
</not>
</and>
</condition>*
