Almost all of these are due to the dependency chain jms (virtual
provide) -> avalon-logkit -> velocity -> (all of maven). avalon-logkit
is basically a dead project, and velocity is the only package that
requires it; akurtakov and I are currently working on patching the
avalon-logkit requirement out of velocity (it's only optional anyway),
which should clean things up a bit.
