To a certain degree <apply> does, as does the new (only in CVS) <subant/>. But both are specialized to do <exec/> and <ant/> respectively. ant-contrib's <foreach/> does what you want by invoking a <target> that can contain arbitrary tasks passing the directory as parameter. The brand new <macrodef/> may be an inspiration to see how you can do what you want in Ant 1.6 - and certainly Peter Reilly's in-house, yet-to-be-published new <foreach/> will be exactly what you want.
