Use a common parent POM and declare a pluginMgmt section the antrun plugin 
with the version and all necessary deps you might need in your builds.

Note, that the same problem may arise if you use a different plugin that 
declares a dependency on th antrun-plugin. This is the reason why nobody 
should derive from existing plugins (especially since then you might even 
get a wrong version of the plugin).

No, it's a well-known classloader issue that can be addressed only in future 
version of Maven. AFAICS the situation is better in M3, but I don't know the 
exact status.
