Marc, Thank you.
I had missed the common 'exclude' child element from the "post resolve tasks" page. That is exactly the 'something obvious' that I was missing. I should have mentioned that the other libraries are all coming from the default maven 2 repository, so I don't believe I could have used your alternative solution - but your comment will influence how I build my own decencies. Thanks again.
