       Body:
i've scanned the maven-plugin sourcebase for javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory and found a workaround there for my problem, which puts the factory in the system properties.
However according to comments there it's a major hack, so I still consider it a bug.

Description:
I'm writing a plugin for creating netbeans modules using maven.
One part of it doens't work for me. I'm using netbeans own ant tasks to generate the files.
One of the tasks requires a javax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory for the file generation.
The affected code in nbantext calls this method:
Transformer t = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer();

I was not able to put xalan of the classpath of the task. Or better to say, it maybe is on the classpath, but it won't find the provider for the interface by searching the jars' META-INF/services folder.
The only way I succeed was to put the xalan's factory impl on the maven startup into the system property (maven --offline -Djavax.xml.transform.TransformerFactory=<impl name> nbm)


what I tried:
I added the xalan jar as dependency.
I added it on the <classloader>root></classloader>
I tried something along these lines in the taks definition:
   <ant:taskdef name="genlist" classname="org.netbeans.nbbuild.MakeListOfNBM" >
       <ant:classpath>
           <ant:pathelement location="${plugin.getDependencyPath('xalan:xalan')}"/>
           <ant:pathelement location="${plugin.getDependencyPath('netbeans:nbantext')}"/>
           <ant:path refid="maven.dependency.classpath"/>
       </ant:classpath>
   </ant:taskdef>

nothing of this works. Any idea?
