Wouldn't matter, since OFBiz will/should still search the build/lib folders for each module.

However, I'd recommend that OFBiz issues a warning whenever it encounters jar files in module-specific build/lib folders. We don't want developers loading 2 sets of the same classes, and spending hours wondering why their changes to the .java files have no effect.

Actually, OFBiz doesn't do any searching around, everything on the classpath is configured very explicitly, mostly through the ofbiz- component.xml files for runtime, and through build.xml file for the build.
