Empty <foreach> input <fileset> folder causes failure

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a hamakefile with a <foreach> element whose input is a <fileset> 
whose path is
   an empty folder.
2. Run hamake on the hamakefile.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

  I expect hamake to exit successfully-- there's nothing to update.  Instead, it fails and
  reports the empty input folder as an error.

  Obviously, this is not so much a bug as a feature that interferes with my use case.

Please use labels and text to provide additional information.

  I've attached a patch that turns the error into a warning and counts the execution of
  the <foreach> as successful rather than failed.

I tend to agree with Peter that this should be a warning. Please review and 
apply.
