I do this in one script I wrote... it's doing it to a JAR, but I believe
the same works for the war task...

<target name="update_war">
  <war destfile="mywar.war" basedir="${classes}" update="true" />
</target>

Basically, I have a directory /org under what ${classes} points to, which
contains some class files to be updated.  That seems to be all there is to
it.
