I tried this Scot, but it didn't do it. So here's an easy repro:
<project default="main">
<taskdef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antlib.xml"/>
<property name="myProp" value="C:\myDog\Loves\Big\Juicy\Bones"/>
<target name="main">
<propertyregex property="tmpProp" input="${myProp}" override="true"
regexp="\\" replace="\\\\" global="true"/>
<echo message="tmpProp is: ${tmpProp}"/>
</target>
</project>
It produces:
[echo] tmpProp is: C:\myDog\Loves\Big\Juicy\Bones
If I change it to:
<project default="main">
<taskdef resource="net/sf/antcontrib/antlib.xml"/>
<property name="myProp" value="C:\myDog\Loves\Big\Juicy\Bones"/>
<target name="main">
<propertyregex property="tmpProp" input="${myProp}" override="true"
regexp="\" replace="\\" global="true"/>
<echo message="tmpProp is: ${tmpProp}"/>
</target>
</project>
it crashes with:
java.util.regex.PatternSyntaxException: Unexpected internal error near index 1

I don't know that what we're trying to do is possible with propertyregex. It
seems it may need some scripting. All I'm really trying to do is:
if(property1.indexOf(string1) >= 0) then return true;
I'll take a look at how to achieve this tomorrow. Thanks!
Eric

Mmm - you may need to do this before your first propertyregex
<propertyregex property="tmpProp" input="${propertyList}" override="true"
regexp="\\" replace="\\\\" globale="true"/>
Basically the above will escape the \
