Which means that <antcall> is slower but safer. The two main differences
(beside speed) is that properties set during the <antcall> do not propagate
to the parent project (are not visible past the <antcall>), and <antcall>
honors the called target's dependencies, whereas <runtarget> does not (the
dependent targets executed depend on which targets where already executed at
the time of the <antcall>).
That's why <runtarget> is not in Ant proper. It's dangerous, and you have to
be an experienced Ant users to understand its tradeoffs (speed v.s.
safety/correctness). --DD
