> To my mind there are two general areas that make wide use of comma-delimited 
> configuration name lists.  The first area is in Ivy file dependency mappings 
> and along with simple configuration names, one can also make use of operators 
> like * for wildcarding and ! for negation.  The second area where these lists 
> are used extensively is in the "conf" attribute of the Ant resolve task and 
> the various post-resolve tasks.  Much like before one can also use the * 
> character for wildcarding here, but much to my frustration the "conf" 
> attribute of these Ant tasks doesn't seem to recognize the ! character as the 
> negation operator.  The attached patch (which includes test case) remedies 
> this tragic situation.
