I've gotten similar errors in the past when trying to use <vssget>. When I specify localpath it must use '\' as the directory separators otherwise it complains that the path is not a DOS path. In other situations I've noticed that either works. I think this is because .NET library objects are smart enough to convert between them (this is speculation on my part). I'm not sure why any task (running on Windows) should require that '/' be used as the directory separator... Unix environment are going to want to specify paths their way and likewise with Windows. I think that any task that is not Windows specific should work either way. (I think <vssget> would be Windows specific since I'm not aware of a Unix version... I could be wrong).

Can you post an example build file demonstrating these issues - ie showing which values only work when they are one or the other format. There is no <includes> task that Im aware of.
