Turns out not a problem in JSF. The legacy ant file on the project was for certain packages only including class files if those classes are directly referenced by classes from certain other packages that are explicitly listed....how brittle. So, listing a converter in faces-config doesn't get the class into the ear file. Anyway, sorry about that!
