I totally agreed with you for not having circular dependencies between projects. Sometimes, you can't say much when you inherit codes from the contractors which you have no control over. Unless I bite the bullet and break all circular dependencies in the code there is nothing much I can do. Other option is to have Eclipse like compiler.
I am under the impression that Eclipse uses SUN compiler because it uses the libraries i.e. tools.jar from the JDK directory.
