Summary: <fileset> type used with <component> changes source dir ref.

Initial Comment:
This happens when defining a new MSI component (using 
the <msi> task) by specifying a <component> sub-
element under <components>.

If the associated <fileset> contains an <include> with 
a search pattern of "**\**" the directory reference 
specified for the component (using the "directory" 
attribute) does not stay constant.  If explicit 
directory paths are used then the directory reference 
does not change.

This forces other tasks and elements that use this 
same directory reference to potentially fail, because 
their source attributes no longer reflect the original 
directory path.

Ex: the <customaction> element, for example, will use 
a directory reference as an execution location.  If 
that changes, and the script the action is executing 
is not there the action will fail.
