yeah, thanks for all the help.  The error was actually with the way ant =
was handling the xml.  In my actual build file i had a task called =
something like Task1, with a capitol T.  When a task is nested, ant was =
converting all names to task1, with s small case t.  That is why they =
would work individually but not nested.  ant could find Task1 bc i def'd =
that, but task1 was not defd

Opps that should if execute is used..

I have used the class you posted in package task with a build build as
follows:

<project default=3D"c">
  <target name=3D"c">
    <mkdir dir=3D"classes"/>
    <javac srcdir=3D"src" destdir=3D"classes"/>
    <taskdef name=3D"task1" classname=3D"task.Task1"
             classpath=3D"classes"/>
    <taskdef name=3D"task2" classname=3D"task.Task2"
             classpath=3D"classes"/>

    <task1/>
    <task2/>
    <task1>
      <task2/>
    </task1>
  </target>
</project>

and task2 defined as:
package task;

import org.apache.tools.ant.Task;

public class Task2 extends Task {
    public void execute() {
        System.out.println("Hello world");
    }
}

This works fine for ant 1.5.4 but fails with ant 1.6.
