Hmm,

the main change is that the webxml attribute now uses <fileset>'s file
attribute internally.  I don't have Windows around, could you please try this
snippet and port the result?

<path id="foo">
  <fileset file="\Xxx\Yyy\Zzz.xml"/>
</path>
<property name="foo-as-prop" refid="foo"/>
<echo>${foo-as-prop}</echo>

and compare it to

<path id="foo">
  <fileset file="D:\Xxx\Yyy\Zzz.xml"/>
</path>
<property name="foo-as-prop" refid="foo"/>
<echo>${foo-as-prop}</echo>

they are supposed to echo the same file name.
