When the GWT compiler runs, it takes the output directory, and creates a folder that matches your module name (either the package+name of your .gwt.xml file, or the rename-to= attribute in that file) - all output is placed inside of there.
This means that the structure you are logging here is expected. If you want to remove that top-level directory, you will need an extra build step to do that after GWT.
