lo and behold, i've solved this one. by chance i was going through the jboss docs and came across the new classloading information. all i had to do was remove the app1-common.jar and manifest from my second application and everything works.
i'm still a little confused my original trial would work only untill i redeploy application 2, then i would get linkage errors, but i'm not going to bang my head against the wall anymore. thank you jboss group for the phenomenal documentation!
