Description of problem:

This is the same projects as BZ1097632. (The difference: I applied Maciej's suggestion in comment#4. And edited jbpm-spring-dep-kjar/pom.xml as below)

(A) Jar which uses Spring
(B) Kjar which includes BPMN2 process which depends on (A) jar.
(C) A main application which runs a process in (B) kjar.

Please look into jbpm-spring-dep-test/jbpm-spring-dep-kjar/pom.xml

I comment-out <dependency> for Spring libraries because (B) kjar just depends on (A) jar and I expect transitive dependencies will be resolved by maven.

But when I run the process, Script Task fails with NoClassDefFoundError.
