it's normally easiest just to delete the directory:
<delete dir="${env.deployClassesDir}"/>
<mkdir dir="${env.deployClassesDir}"/>

This also saves you from having to handle .xml files (for example) which may 
also get put into your output directory. Just nuke the whole dir and 
re-create it.

i think you'd need:
<delete>
  <fileset dir="${deployClassesDir}">
    <include name="**/*"/>
  </fileset>
</delete>
