WAR project that uses overlays: Class not found [message #907947]

Eclipse: Indigo SR2
M2E: 1.1.0
M2E-WTP: 0.15.3

I have a multi-module Maven project with several JAR modules, a WAR module (that is used as an overlay), and another WAR module that is used as the final WAR.

These projects haven't changed in a few months, but I recently updated my Eclipse plugins and started seeing "Class not found" errors in Eclipse in the final WAR module project. The Java classes that are "not found" are inside the WAR overlay module project.

The system builds and runs without error, both from within Eclipse and the command line.

My question is this: Is M2E-WTP supposed to help the final WAR module project in Eclipse understand it will be receiving classes from the WAR overlay project in Eclipse?

If so, then perhaps I have something misconfigured. If not, then is this a defect?

ok - found out here:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/M2E-WTP_FAQ#How_do_I_add_my_web_project_classes_to_another_project.27s_classpath.3F

that what I want to do cannot be done! Going to move the classes to a new maven module packaged as a JAR and make that a dependency of both WARs.
