I was thinking may be Javadoc task can pick up the package-info.java
while it is processing the input filesets. I am not familiar with
Javadoc task's code, may be this not possible.

1.5 chose the name package-info.java precisely because it was invalid
and couldn't have existed before. 

Thank you for taking time to respond.
