Two possibilities:
1. You could try running an ant <delete> task right before packaging
to delete target/classes. I'm not sure if that would work or if it
would break something, since I'm sure the m-war-p is going to be
looking for that directory. But it would be easy to try and find out.

2. You could hack in a new optional configuration parameter that would
tell the WAR plugin "don't include target/classes if it is empty" and
then offer it back to the plugin dev team via JIRA. But there's a
chance it wouldn't be accepted etc and then you're stuck maintaining
your own internal patched m-w-p until it is.
