yea, the published POM would. android library projects don't pull in transitive dependencies. see http://developer.android.com/tools/projects/index.html under "A library project can depend on an external JAR library" - the dependent project has to add `<uses-library>` elements in that case, which I'd like to avoid since we don't require it now.

I filed a support question at http://forums.gradle.org/gradle/topics/gradle_one_jar_with_stock_android_plugin to see if there's a way to solve this problem
