Description

Maven 3.5.2 appears to have introduces some kind of a class loading error, manifesting itself like this:

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax.annotation.security.RolesAllowed
	at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.strategy.SelfFirstStrategy.loadClass(SelfFirstStrategy.java:50)
	at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.realm.ClassRealm.unsynchronizedLoadClass(ClassRealm.java:271)
	at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.realm.ClassRealm.loadClass(ClassRealm.java:247)
	at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.realm.ClassRealm.loadClass(ClassRealm.java:239)
	... 184 more

Previous versions of Maven do not manifest this.

To reproduce this:

• Clone the Enunciate sample project.
• Build the project (mvn clean package) with 3.5.0 and note the success.
• Build the project with 3.5.2 and note the failure.
