<apply skipemptyfilesets="true"> should not emit verbose message except if verbose="true"

           Summary: <apply skipemptyfilesets="true"> should not emit verbose
                    message except if verbose="true"
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.6.1
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core tasks
        AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: shankar@cotagesoft.com


What the summary says. 

If I want to run a command (like an m4 invocation, etc.) only if some targets
are newer than some sources, I have to use <apply> with
skipemptyfilesets="true", but then I get this verbose message saying:

    [apply] Skipping fileset for directory C:\Workarea\CSIMain\csi\sql\base. It
is empty.

Well, yes. But I don't want a verbose message about it unless I say
verbose="true". After all, the verbose attribute was introduced specifically to
make <apply> say things like

    [apply] Processing file C:\Workarea\CSIMain\csi\sql\base\app.sql
    [apply] Applied C:\cygwin\bin\m4 to 1 file and 0 directories.

And this is in exactly the same spirit as saying that it skipped the fileset
entirely.
