First off all, the <jlink> task is a nice example of why we should be careful with what we add to Ant. It seems it is more or less unmaintained, there are some known issues and no one of the committers really feels comfortable enough with the code to dive into it. Even more, most of its functionality has been superseded by the nested <zipfileset> element of <zip> and friends.
It has been me, who committed the task, so I'm just blaming myself.

I agree with this, but as I don't know why the code is in there in the first place ...
