Summary: Jar file corruption found after build on Windows

Initial Comment:
When building the current source for branch 3.2 on the 
Windows platform, the output from the build contains 
corrupted jar files.  One of the files that gets corrupted 
is:

jboss\console\output\resources\webconsole.war\imagesotherimages.jar

After the build was completed, WinZip was used to take 
a look at the jar file.  WinZip reported the following error:

Error
Start of central directory not found; Zip file corrupt.
Possible cause: file transfer error.

It looks like the file corruption is the result of an 
improper use of the Ant copy command during the build.  
In some of the build xml files, there are copy commands 
that have the filtering option set to “yes”.  Within the 
Ant documentation is the following warning about using 
filtering:

Note: If you employ filters in your copy operation, you 
should limit the copy to text files. Binary files will be 
corrupted by the copy operation. This applies whether 
the filters are implicitly defined by the filter or explicitly 
provided to the copy operation as filtersets.

When the build was run on Windows with filtering set 
to “no”, the file corruption went away.

The attached diff file contains modifications we made to 
build files to get around the problem.
