An ugly solutioin would be something like
<fileset dir="${junit.dir}">
<include name="junit*.jar"/>
</fileset>
However this would break on systems that implement a cjan like system and
have multiple versions in same directory ;(
Maybe in absolute worst case we could do
<property name="junit.path" value=".../junit-part1.jar:.../junit-part2.jar" />
and use path rather than location to include it into a classpath???
