I tried doing something like this:
------------
<j:forEach items="${springContexts.iterator()}"
var="springContext">
<echo message="springContext[${springContext}]"/>
<attainGoal name="processSpringContext">
<j:set var="springContext.file" value="${springContext}"/>
</attainGoal>
</j:forEach>
</preGoal>
<goal name="processSpringContext">
<echo message="Processing the Spring context:
${springContext.file}"/>
</goal>
------------
This seems close, using "j:set" to set variables that I reference in the
goal. However, it doesn't quite work. The first "echo" prints the name
of the file, but when I pass that into "springContext.file" and then
dereference it in the called goal, it just prints "true".
