Hey David,

Thanks for the help.  This is the final copy, and it appears to be working.

    <target name="clean" depends="init" >
        <delete includeemptydirs="true">
            <fileset dir="${basedir}">
                <exclude name="build.xml"/>
                <exclude name="test.xml"/>
                <exclude name="src/**/*"/>
                <exclude name="tests/**/*"/>
            </fileset>
        </delete>
    </target>

I had to add the /* to the end of the directories to get the actual
files under those directory trees to be excluded, but other than that
it's pretty much what you had.  In the docs, they say you're supposed
to be able to have each of the exclude/include statements incorporate
a group of patterns, separated by ',' or ' ', but I haven't been able
to get this to work.  Anyone know anything about those?
