Sorry to mislead you. I wasn't actually suggesting that the actual optional tag was the fix. In fact, I think that flag is only applicable for project-dependency scenarios, not jar-dependency. You can try to repro the build break I see by creating another similar block but with systemPath pointing to a non-existing file on your machine.

I just came across an old forum post and thought this looked somewhat promising. Let me know if you would like to try this out. Otherwise, I can give it a shot. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3080437/jdk-tools-jar-as-maven-dependency#answer-3080695

By the way, I'm developing on OSX.
