Not picking up environment variables?

           Summary: Not picking up environment variables?
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.5.4
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: MacOS X
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core
        AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: jason@semanticresearch.com


Using the ant bundled w/Eclipse 3.0 M3 (v1.5.4) on Mac OS X 10.2, environment variables seem to 
be ignored and interpreted as literal strings. For example:

<property environment="env"/>
...
<echo message="JBOSS_HOME is set to = ${env.JBOSS_HOME}"/>

should print (on my box)...

"JBOSS_HOME is set to = /usr/local/jboss"

instead it prints...

"JBOSS_HOME is set to = ${env.JBOSS_HOME}"
