One related issue we ran into a while ago was that our ant script  
imported environment variables into properties, some of which (for  
instance a repo url) are then referenced in ivy settings.

Obviously that broke in IvyDE as Ivy doesn't support drawing from the  
environment.  I was going to submit a patch, but then realized it  
would require JDK 1.5, and Ivy seems trying to maintain 1.4  
compatibility.

Cheers.
