I am "working" (in the to-do queue) on a enhanced version of <macrodef>
allows nearly arbitrary fragments of xml to be marcodef'ed.
see:
http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40678
This should address your use case:
<macrodef name="all-source-files">
<fragment>
<fileset dir="..." includes="..."/>
<fileset dir="..." includes="..."/>
<fileset dir="..." includes="..."/>
</fragment>
</macrodef>
<target name="pmd">
<pmd>
<all-source-files/>
</pmd>
</target>
