Ant regression with ClassNotFoundException for DefaultLocalFileProvider
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: VFS-228
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VFS-228
             Project: Commons VFS
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.0
         Environment: java version "1.6.0_0"
IcedTea6 1.3.1 (6b12-0ubuntu6) Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_0-b12)
OpenJDK Client VM (build 1.6.0_0-b12, mixed mode, sharing)

Apache Ant version 1.7.1 compiled on October 3 2008
            Reporter: Per Hermansson
            Priority: Critical
             Fix For: 2.0


The latest version from trunk fails to work with Apache Ant resulting in this 
error:
Could not load VFS configuration from 
"jar:file:/media/Fort/per/program/backup/lib/commons-vfs-2.0-SNAPSHOT.jar!/org/apache/commons/vfs/impl/providers.xml".

which was caused by 
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: 
org.apache.commons.vfs.provider.local.DefaultLocalFileProvider 

The cause seems to be a class loader issued introduced in rev 537717.

Reverting that change:
cd core
svn diff -c r537717 
src/main/java/org/apache/commons/vfs/impl/StandardFileSystemManager.java | 
patch -R
mvn clean install
[copy commons-vfs-2.0-SNAPSHOT to my test's lib dir]
ant -f test.xml test

Makes my example ant file work again (worked with the 1.0 release).
The 537717 revision was intended to fix 
VFS-136: Don't force-set the classloader - Thanks to Adam Heath for the patch

So it might be a bit controversial to reverse that change.
Attaching patch fixing the issue and my example ant file.
