One problem I have is that I am using TestNG as unit test framework.
TestNG is using Beanshell with a most recent version.  Our product is
using Beanshell as well, but for some reason we have to go with an older
version.  If TestNG is in the classpath first, the compiler cannot find
classes available in the older version that are not available in the
newer version or moved to other folders.  In that case I get a
compilation error.

Another problem I recently had to deal with and had to give up with
Maven 2 is using Jaxb 1 with JDK 5 and JDK 1.4.  JDK 5 has some classes
per default that are not available under Java 1.4.  Since I am not able
to force the order of the classpath, I was not able to solve the problem
with Maven 2 and Java 1.4 and the lib files that come with the Jaxb 1
distribution.

I think from time to time there will be situations where it is desirable
to force the order of jars within the classpath.

There is no way to do that in maven2,  Just wonder,  What is your
usecase
that requires this
feature.
