CM Class Loading

One of the guys here downloaded Cayenne (versions 3 and 2) and tried
running Cayenne Modeler, but it kept crashing.  I looked at it for him
and there was an exception in Apache Commons (I don't have the exact
exception, but that isn't the real issue).  I eventually went to his
/Library/Java/Extensions directory and he must've had 100 JAR files in
there.  One of them (we didn't try debugging it) was providing a
different version of commons than what CM needed and the Extensions
directory gets added to the start of the CLASSPATH (from what I know).
 I'm not sure if this is a bug or even how to fix it if we wanted to.
Any thoughts on this scenario?

Thanks,

PS. Yes, I know, you shouldn't have that many things in the extensions
folder and I told him about that.
