We do the following to get around the various Windows os.name values.

    <condition property=3D"os.type" value=3D"Windows">
      <contains string=3D"${os.name}" substring=3D"Windows"/>
    </condition>
    <condition property=3D"os.type" value=3D"SunOS">
      <contains string=3D"${os.name}" substring=3D"SunOS"/>
    </condition>
    <condition property=3D"os.type" value=3D"Linux">
      <contains string=3D"${os.name}" substring=3D"Linux"/>
    </condition>
    <property name=3D"os.type" value=3D"unknown"/>
    <property file=3D"${os.type}.build.properties"/>

I think I should make a FAQ entry :-)

Create a property file for your platform specific configurations and use
    <property file=3D"${os.name}.properties"/>
    <property file=3D"default.properties"/>

But be careful. I remember a discussion that on some win32 systems
(nt/2k/xp
-=20
one of these) the value of os.name is not "windows" :-)
