The overwrite happens often but not invariably (could it have to do with
permissions on the build.xml file?). I have seen it with Java EE applications
and with Java client applications.

Typically this is what happens: I open the project and find that the edited
build.xml file has been overwritten by a default one (I check in Windows
Explorer to make sure). I close the project and overwrite the new build.xml file
with a saved copy of my edited build.xml file. I reopen the project. This time
the build.xml file is not overwritten, but NetBeans still shows the default
version for a while. Then at some point it figures out that there is a new
version and shows that.
