property set in sub-task not defined

Greetings,

I'm trying to set a property in a sub-task, but it not working. I put
here a sample test:

<target name="X">
  <antcall target="Y" />
   <echo message="Z is ${Z}" />
</target>

<target name="Y">
  <property name="Z" value="OK" />
</target>

If I call the target X, I will get the output "Z is ${Z}" instead what I
expect to happen, "Z is OK".

How can I set a property in a sub-task if we know that properties are
immutable?

thanks,
Pedro Salazar.
