Do you need to copy those directories or only their contents?
I.e. will root/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF become
root/deploy/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF or root/deploy/MANIFEST.MF?

How are those directories specified?

Probably something like

<copy>
  <fileset dir="root">
    <and>
      <selector making sure the files are inside one of the
                directories you need/>
      <selector selecting the includes only/>
      <not>
        <selector selecting the excludes only/>
      </not>
    </and>
  </fileset>
</copy>

and if necessary throw in a mapper to remove directory prefixes.
