As I noted in #15, I share your concern about backwards compatibility. In lieu of any further input on this issue, and in the interest of keeping the code as clean and simple as possible, I believe the ANDROID_AAPT_IGNORE solution posed in that thread would be the preferred way to solve this problem.
Feel free to submit another issue and/or pull request if you think of any new ideas!
This should address issue #15 (although I realise this request will create yet another issue).
As far as I can tell there is no really easy way to solve the problem without splitting source directories. If I understand it correctly, you should not modify a signed package. Unfortunately, for debug packages, packaging and signing are done in one step, and there is no chance to remove files.
So, I've created a patch that uses the same src parameter and checks for a 'mirah' subdirectory. This is not the most robust way to do things, since this will break if someone has a 'mirah' top-level package. However, I am guessing that should be rare.
If the mirah source directory exists, it makes sure a java source directory exists as well. This keeps the build from breaking.
If no mirah source directory exists, it prints a nice warning and retains the old behaviour.
The parameters sent to Ant are slightly modified so that Android knows where to look for the Java directory.
