<apply> and <execon> both convert the filenames to absolute paths, but
from a coding point of view, DirectoryScanner gives the file names as
relative paths in the first place.
When you look at <copy>, it is doing something like
File fromDir = fs.getDir(project);
String[] srcFiles = ds.getIncludedFiles();
and later
File src = new File(fromDir, srcFiles[i]);
to explicitely get absolute paths. You could simply pass the results
from srcFiles to your command directly and they would be relative to
fromDir.
