Hi Gary,
I tested you approach and it works and does what I needed.
In master build file I include for all targets following:
<property name="tmp" value="${base_dir}\\build.inc"/>
<include buildfile="${project::get-base-directory()}\build.inc"
unless="${file::exists(property::get-value('tmp'))}"/>
<include buildfile="${tmp}"
if="${file::exists(property::get-value('tmp'))}"/>
So I can put build.inc into my local directory if it differs from master
build.
Thanks for the idea.

In the past, I've used two strategies to do this:
1. Check for a local build file in the project directory. If it exists,
use the <nant> task to execute the build target in that file, otherwise
execute the build target in the master file.
2. Import (using the <include> task) all of the local project build files,
if they exist. Then, for each project named "project.name" do
<call target="${project.name}-build-setup"
if="${target::exists(project.name + '-build-setup')}" />
<call target="${project.name}-build-local"
if="${target::exists(project.name + '-build-local')}" />
<call target="${project.name}-build-local"
unless="${target::exists(project.name + '-build-local')}" />
<call target="${project.name}-build-cleanup"
if="${target::exists(project.name + '-build-cleanup')}" />
The first is a bit more efficient overall, while the second allows for
finer-grained control, more like an aspect-oriented approach instead of just
object-oriented.
