I have an ant script which needs a property like
test.xyz=abc+(abc1|abc2)
for triggering a nunit test execution.

The problem is that the pipe is found as an special char (I don't know why) and was prefixed with an ^. This ^ changes the value and will break e.g. nunit at the test execution.

$ cmd.exe /C '"<XXX>\.hudson\tools\ant\bin\ant.bat "-Dtest.xyz=abc+(abc1^|abc2)" test && exit %%ERRORLEVEL%%"'

the same configuration worked fine with version 1.367.
