Thanks for your response Wendy, but this still isn't clear to me at all.
Are you saying I have to add two dependency elements for each library, once
with a scope of compile, and once with a scope of runtime but with the
optional flag set?  Doesn't the compile scope imply runtime dependency as
well?

Yes.  Just runtime scope should do it for you, since it will also be
available for compilation.

<optional> is useful for compile scope dependencies that you don't
want to be transitive.

In no case do you need two dependency elements for the same
dependency.  Some combination of <scope> and <optional> should work.

(And I agree, optional should be discussed on the dependency mechanism page.)
