Not really. The Includes collection is just the set of wildcards 
specified by the <includes="" elements. They have not been scanned or 
expanded so accessing <includes="*.foo"> will give you the exact string 
*.foo rather than all files that end in .foo.

DbgCLR worked fine for me. Go to Debug | program to Debug. Select the 
newly built Nant.exe and set the working directory to where you have a 
.build you want to test. The do a debug | step into and it stops at the 
first line of Main().
