When creating path objects using the dependencies task it is not possible to 
filter out artifacts by type.

                 Key: MANTTASKS-210
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MANTTASKS-210
             Project: Maven 2.x Ant Tasks
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: dependencies task
    Affects Versions: 2.1.1
            Reporter: Stephen Connolly
            Priority: Minor


If you reference an object of type pom and pull its dependencies into a path 
object, the resulting path will contain the pom files which java then presumes 
to be malformed zip files.

If you use type="jar" then it will not resolve the dependencies of the pom 
artifact at all, so you need to have type="jar,pom" to get the dependencies of 
the packaging pom artifact.

What is needed is a separate pathType attribute to allow retrieving the full 
set of dependencies into the fileset, while selecting a subset for the path 
object.
