From the task description they mention...

The nested metainf element specifies a FileSet. All files included in this fileset will end up in the META-INF directory of the ear file. If this fileset includes a file named MANIFEST.MF, the file is ignored and you will get a warning.

Example:

<ear destfile="${build.dir}/myapp.ear" appxml="${src.dir}/metadata/application.xml">
  <metainf dir="${xml.dir}" includes="*.xsd,*.xml"/>
</ear>
