regression : <dependency> in plugin configuration doesn't override plugin 
classpath
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MNG-3426
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3426
             Project: Maven 2
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Plugin API
    Affects Versions: 2.0.8
            Reporter: nicolas de loof
            Priority: Critical


Many maven plugins are wrapper around other tools. The plugin is designed for a 
version of the tool, and in many case user will want to use a specific version 
without having to patch the plugin. The <dependency> element on plugin 
configuration is a common way to do this, by overriding the plugin POM 
dependency with another version. This used to work with maven < 2.0.8

In maven 2.0.8, this doesn't work anomire as the <dependency> set in plugin 
configuration is added to classpath, as a duplicate for the on declared by the 
plugin but LATER in the classpath.
