Interesting. In what way does log4j conflict with this model?
Also, do you plan in sharing this work? It could be useful to the Ant
community at large. Thanks, --DD

Suppose I have a directory tree

a-1.0.jar
x.jar

z.jar
a-2.0.jar
a-1.0.jar and a-2.0.jar are different versions of the same library.
A tree class loader will make sure that x.jar and y.jar use version
1.0, while z.jar use version 2.0.
So, when I create a ClassLoader by saying:
ClassLoader treeClassLoader = TreeClassLoaders.makeClassLoader(new File("lib"));
The class loader will honor the tree structure and enforce precedence.
I feel this way I can manage dependencies naturally in directories
without explicitly specifying versions as in maven.
