Your old build file relied on behavior that was plain wrong and already
creates warning messages in 1.7.1 (you can see it in your example).

>From Ant 1.8.0's release notes[1] under "Changes that could break older
environments":

 * Remove fall-back mechanism for references that are not resolved
   during normal runtime execution.

Starting with Ant 1.8.0 you cannot use any reference to anything that has
not been defined at the time Ant reaches the place where you want to
use it.  This is a breaking change and an intentional one.
