Actually, I found the following on the web, which seems to work:

task customFatJar(type: Jar) {
    dependsOn copyDeps
    baseName = 'all-in-one-jar'
    from {
        configurations.deploy.collect {
            it.isDirectory() ? it : zipTree(it)
        }
    }
}

I'm not at all sure *why* it works, but it does :-)
