Please spare yourself some frustration and make yourself familiar with how
properties work in Ant.  If you reread my comment when I closed Bug 19730 you'll
see I said - no matter which task you've used to set it.

You say the build number doesn't change, this in turn implies that the property
has a value before you start the loadproperties task.  The task will read the
file (believe me, it does), but it will not change the value of the property
because properties are immutable in Ant.
