I want to add a single file to an archive.  Looking through the docs, I 
expected to be able to write:

	<zip includes="${to}" destfile="${backup_zip}"

but this returned the error: "basedir attribute must be set, or at least one 
fileset must be given!".

So I ended up with:

	<dirname property="to.path" file="${to}"/>
	<basename property="to.filename" file="${to}"/>
	<zip destfile="${backup_zip}">
	    <fileset dir="${to.path}" includes="${to.filename}"/>
	</zip>

That seems a little laborious - is there an easier way?
