Thank you, Earl. Was not aware of apply.  That worked nicely!  I would 
love to understand why exec does not work, though, when the executable is 
"/bin/sh" and the protoc command is the first arg.

Glob expansion is a shell function, hence the error you are getting
since the file "*.proto" does not exist.

Have a look at <apply>.  It supports filesets.
