Description

Even with a snapshot dependency in the pom, a release version is included in the classpath for compilation.

This happens when a mid-level dependency and the top-level project both depend on the same artifact. The mid-level dependency selects a range of valid versions which includes the snapshot version and the top-level project depends explicitly on the snapshot version.

This is a regression from 2.2.1

To reproduce:
1. Release/deploy/install v1.0 of tlib
2. deploy v1.1-SNAPSHOT of tlib
3. Release/deploy/install v1.0 of tlib2
4. Try to compile tapp
