Summary: uptodate breaking change

Initial Comment:
With an earlier version of the nightly build,
0.85.1537.0, I was able
to use a global fileset for all references for both the
<csc> and
<uptodatetasks>.

Now, with the latest nightly build, I can no longer do
this.  <csc>
expects an <assemblyfileset> for the <references
refid="">, while
<uptodate> expects a <fileset> for the <sources refid="">.

I would expect that the <assemblyfileset> would be
implictly upcast 
to
a <fileset> for the <uptodate> task, but, this is not
the case.

We use <uptodate> twice.  The first pass is to compare
a fileset of
source files and build files against the target binary.
 The second
pass is to compare a fileset of references against the
target binary.  

The theory is that we should only build if any of the
following are
younger: source CS files, build files (which gen
assemblyinfo.cs), or
reference assemblies.  Simply checking CS files is not
enough for a
very large application (~100 assemblies/build files).

Did the NAnt team intentionally break this feature, or
is this a bug?

Is there a better way of doing this?  Keep in mind that
we only want 
to
declare a single fileset for all references, which can
be reused 
across
a build file.
