As for relative vs. absolute this is a problem anyway.

Mappers need relative names in many places, so if the iterator
returned Files instead of Strings they'd need a way to get back to the
relative name - and if it was String many tasks will need a way to get
the basedir to resolve them to an absolute path.


This is the issue I ran into with the <outofdate> task/type in ant-contrib.
It's mapper has a "dir" attribute to set the parentdir of the files returned
by the <sources> path. It can be a little tricky to set up correctly.
