Thanks Chris, It looks like that's true. It turns out this wasn't a permissions issue at all. For some reason copying the JAR files out of the directory and back into it caused them to be picked up (I read this in a suggestion somewhere). Reading the 'man' entry for cp I see that it doesn't preserve "Access Control Lists (ACLs) and Extended Attributes (EAs), including resource forks" unless the -p flag is set (this is on by default when using mv). My guess is that removing this "access control" information somehow made the files accessible to the tomcat7-maven-plugin. It seems a little sketchy that I don't really know the root cause of the problem, but I'm happy that it's now fixed.
