Rather than trying to form a <fileset>, I think a <copy> with maybe a
regexp <mapper> would be your best bet. I can't say for sure this would
work without expending some trial-and-error effort, but give that a shot
to copy the files with some (.*) and \1 magic to see if that would do
the trick.
I have to ask - why have such a special case to do this type of
fine-grained selection of .java files? I question processes that have
this type of complexity and I'm just curious what the use-case is here
to understand it better.
