+       commons-lang is so high up in the dependency chain (used by
+       several mvn plugins) that it needs a separate local
+       repository to not "taint" subsequent builds with older
+       versions of projects built by Gump.
+
+       This project really is more like a bootstrap-commons-lang since
+       it will build against the dependencies specified by the POM and
+       not the latest versions.  Fortunately commons-lang doesn't have
+       any dependencies to speak of.
