nope they are seperate classloaders. Or at least they
*should* be according to spec :P. They have to be seperate
because WEB-INF/classes is reloadable (and thus has to be
disposable) while WEB-INF/lib is meant to be static. So the
disposable CL has a parent CL that is responsible for
WEB_INF/lib

But it can matter to the run time :P. CL issues always
irritate me and it usually takes me ages to track them down
- one of the reasons I use WEB-INF/lib for more of my stuff
if I can help it.
