Matt, Thanks for the suggestion of using an includesfile attribute for the <fileset> element. Because the includesfile deals with "include patterns", I originally dismissed it as a possible solution. However, now that I think about it a little more, as long as the file contains explicit information (and not patterns), this this should work.
