The reason I do not want to try and put the jars in my repository is that I
have the 3rd party jars checked into SVN as a project in my workspace, and thus
can ensure that my 3rd party jars are accessible on any machine that tries to
do the build.
My thinking was that if they were in the repository , I would have to have some
way of syncing those 3rd party jars manually on each machine to ensure they
got updated.
Perhaps I am doing it backwards but I want an easily reproducible environment.
How do others deal with this?
I will try the -D flag for eclipse. sounds like it might do the trick.

Andy, I'm guessing you've already been asked... why not just install the
third party library in your local repository and make life easier.
System scope is discouraged from what I understand.
That said, this works for me on windows and roughly translated to bash:
$>eclipse [commandoptions] -vmargs
-Denv.MAVEN_WORKSPACE=$MAVEN_WORKSPACE
Once eclipse launches click Help->About->Configuration Details *and
verify you have an entry in the list of java properties matching
env.MAVEN_WORKSPACE=/home/dingfeldera/workspace
Also you do need the $ in
<systemPath>${env.MAVEN_WORKSPACE}//java.3rdParty/jars/Serialio-7.5.jar<
/systemPath>
