True. If you're needing to test on the actual value, then you'll have to
pass your "parameter" through <condition> first to set/not-set a property,
then use that property in your <include>/<exclude>.
For example:
<target name="copyfiles">
<condition property="excludeFoofiles" value="true">
<equals arg1="${parameter}" arg2="needed.value"/>
</condition>
<copy todir="${dest.dir}">
<fileset dir="${src.dir}">
<exclude name="**/*foo*" if="excludeFoofiles"/>
</fileset>
</copy>
</target>
