Your workaround does indeed work, and I was actually already doing that
for a different case, which I suppose brings up another issue.
<sometask if="${somevariable}">
Somevariable needs to be defined. :( which means I have to explicitly
set it to false in all my projects that don't specifically want it. A
bit annoying.
The workaround of course, is...
<property name="somevariable" value="false"
unless="${property-exists('somevariable')}/>
Just more sugar to get the desired result I guess. I've filed a bug on
sourceforge for the original bug.
Cheers,
