One way to build a pom that works is to define different profiles
activated by the different Java implementations. Only for Hotspot and
JRockit would a dependency on tools.jar be included, thus saving
builds on the Mac from failing. And marking the dependencies as
"system" scope means there won't be an explicit runtime dependency in
the resulting module. At least that's what I did in appclient/server/
core/pom.xml.
