Decomment is not a core ant task, you will have to ask the author of that

I noticed this comment in the javadoc

Warning!! The decomment process uses regular expressions. There's not a
syntactic analysis, so there might be unexpected results if there are quoted
comment symbols. Never overwrite your original source code without making a
backup first!

The stripjavacomments filter may work better for this env.
It should work for javascript files as the comments are the same
and it does take into account strings.

<copy destdir="stripped">
  <fileset dir="src" includes="**/*.js"/>
  <filterchain>
     <stripjavacomments/>
  </filterchain>
</copy>
