Sorry, my previous answer seems to be too short.
With the timestampselector everythings works fine :-)
My current solution looks something like:
<target name="import" depends="checkPackages,importPackages" />
<target name="checkSua" >
<timestampselector property="packageList"
count="9999" pathsep="," age="eldest" >
<path>
<fileset dir="${dir.import}"
casesensitive="false" includes="${pattern}" />
</path>
</timestampselector>
</target>
<target name="importPackages" if="packageList" >
<for param="package" list="${packageList}" >
<sequential>
<importArchive archive="@{package}" />
</sequential>
</for>
</target>
