yeah, that's what I meant. My problem is that I am importing the MySQL
Connector/J directly in my source file.
So all my source files are not allowed to use such a class? But the
MySQLJDBCDataModel has a constructor like ...(DataSource ds, ...) and
DataSource is provided by the MySQL Connector/J but how can I give my
constructor a dataSource if I can't use the classes I need - deps that
shouldn't be there?
Moreover, if I can configure the jetty server that it can handle MySQL
connections it's also ok but how can I compile a java source file that
needs a dataSource which is declared in a class I can't use directly?
(something paradox...)

No. As I've said, you never import the driver / connector classes
directly. You have a complete working example: Mahout. As you can see
it doesn't depend on this.
As I've also said, please read the documentation for Tomcat (or your
container). Here you go:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/jndi-resources-howto.html#JDBC_Data_Sources
This is where MySQL Connector/J is involved.

ok, thanks for your detailed answer - now I understand! :)
So my problem is that I must import the MySQL Connector/J into my source
files because I need them. The nasty thing about that is that I just need
"import com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlDataSource;" in my dataSource but
that won't work because there shouldn't be any dependencies on that because
I must configure the web application to use/provide the connector.
omg... Is there any example round here that shows such a configuration?
