--- Comment #1 from Stefan Bodewig <bo...@apache.org> ---
The erroronmissingdir="false" setting is used in a situation where you try to
create a generic build that may or may not want to include some optional
resources - and happily goes on when those optional resources are not there.

I'm not sure what a <fileset> without a base directory would be used for, what
is your use-case?  The only thing I can imagine is something like <zipfileset>
which can read from an archive rather than a directory, but this one simply
overrides getDirectoryScanner (in ArchiveFileSet).
