It appears that including a commons-logging.properties file triggers the
use of commons-logging by Velocity, and the Avalon logging isn't necessary.

For those trying to get Velocity working on their project, using
velocity-deps.jar might be an option (instead of plain-old
velocity.jar), but it includes some classes that might interfere with
whatever you want to load. Configuring a commons-logging.properties file
seems like the most flexible choice.

Also, you'll need commons-digester if you are using Velocity 1.4.
