Sorry, I still do not see the problem..

I tried your code and addText() has been called
before addConfiguredValue() is called.

:MyData2.java:
import org.apache.tools.ant.types.DataType;

public class MyData2 extends DataType {
    private String id;
    private String text;
    private MyValue2 value;

    public MyData2() {
    }
    public void addConfiguredValue( MyValue2 value ) {
        System.out.println(
            "MyData2: AddConfiguredValue: value is "
            + value.toString());
         text =3D value.toString();
         this.value =3D value;
     }

     public void setId( String id ) {
         this.id =3D id;
     }

     public String getId() {
         return id;
    }

     public String toString() {
         System.out.println(
             "text is " + text + " Late resolve: "+value );
         return text;
     }
}

:MyValue2.java:
import org.apache.tools.ant.Task;
import org.apache.tools.ant.types.Reference;
public class MyValue2 extends Task {
    private StringBuffer sb =3D new StringBuffer();
    private Reference id;
    public void addText(String text) {
        sb.append( text );
    }
    public void setUseData( Reference id ) {
        this.id =3D id;
    }
    public String toString() {
        if( id !=3D null ) {
            return ((MyData2)id.getReferencedObject( getProject()
                                                    )).toString();
        }
        if( sb.length() =3D=3D 0 ) {
            return null;
        }
        return sb.toString();
    }
}

:MyExec2.java:
import org.apache.tools.ant.Task;

 public class MyExec2 extends Task {
     public void addConfiguredValue(MyValue2 v) {
         System.out.println("v is " + v);
     }
 }

:build.xml:
<project name=3D"t" default=3D"t">
  <target name=3D"t">
    <delete dir=3D"classes" quiet=3D"yes"/>
    <mkdir dir=3D"classes"/>
    <javac srcdir=3D"src" destdir=3D"classes"/>
    <typedef name=3D"mydata2" classname=3D"MyData2"
             classpath=3D"classes" loaderref=3D"classes"/>
    <taskdef name=3D"myexec2" classname=3D"MyExec2"
             classpath=3D"classes" loaderref=3D"classes"/>


    <mydata2 id=3D"data2">
      <value>value 1</value>
      <value>value 2</value>
    </mydata2>

    <myexec2>
      <value usedata=3D"data2"/>
    </myexec2>
  </target>
</project>

:output is:

    [mkdir] Created dir: /home/preilly/proj/learning/custom/classes
    [javac] Compiling 6 source files to=20

  [mydata2] MyData2: AddConfiguredValue: value is value 2
  [mydata2] text is value 2 Late resolve: value 2
  [myexec2] text is value 2 Late resolve: value 2
  [myexec2] v is value 2
