       Body:
Looks like the problem is in how the undefined property is passed from Ant to Maven. The special characters "${}" must be causing a problem. When using Maven 1.0, you can handle empty properties by quoting them like this:

      <arg value='-Dmdb.version="${mdb.version}"'/>

Environment: Mandrake 9.0, JDK 1.4.2, Maven 1.0 final, Ant 1.5.3-1, AnthillOS 1.6.3.67. Of these, only the Maven version has changed in the past several months.

Description:
I use Anthill for my build tool. Since it does not run Maven directly, I use an Ant build.xml wrapper around Maven. This worked fine through RC4, but started giving a StackOverflowError in maven:reactor after upgrading to 1.0 Final. I've traced it down to the following.

In my Ant wrapper:

  <target name="maven" depends="init">
    <exec executable="${maven.cmd}" vmlauncher="true" failonerror="true">
      <arg value="-d" />
      <arg value="${project.dir}" />
      <arg value="-Dmdb.version=${mdb.version}"/>
      <arg value="${goal}"/>
    </exec>
  </target>

If mdb.version has a value, this works. If mdb.version is not defined, I get the StackOverflowError for 1.0 Final, but not RC4.
