name attribute of record task is not relative to basedir

           Summary: name attribute of record task is not relative to basedir
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.5
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core tasks
        AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: mariuss@lightspeed.ca

The 'name' attribute of the 'record' task is specifying a file name and this
file name is relative to the current folder and not to the 'basedir' of the project.

If the build file is run by some other tool (like Antelope) then the current
folder is not even the folder where the build file is.

The 'name' attribute probably should be relative to the project 'basedir' (as
difined in the 'project' root tag), the same way the 'echoproperties' optional
tag works for example.
