Cool. I went the macrodef route and everything worked
<macrodef name="propertycopy">
<attribute name="name"/>
<attribute name="from"/>
<sequential>
<property name="@{name}" value="${@{from}}"/>
</sequential>
</macrodef>
<property name="baseurl.prop"
value="selenium.vlv.${buildtarget}.baseurl"/>
<propertycopy name="baseurl" from="${baseurl.prop}"/>
