One of the motivations for developing a Maven build process for Struts is to lower the barrier to entry, as there's a lot of work to do in editing the build.properties to work with Ant the first time (as you've seen by now if you got as far as compiling against a newer version of the Servlet API!)
If you have Maven installed, you normally wouldn't need to do anything else. Maven reads a config file and downloads dependencies from public repositories.
At this time, however, the Struts project has a defined dependency on an unreleased version of commons-validator. An unmodified maven build from CVS HEAD will fail because that dependency can't be resolved. A full commons-validator release is coming real-soon-now, and in the future, we'll be putting interim releases on a secondary repository (dependency JAR web server).
For now, I've put up a copy of the dependency and written a few instructions at http://apache.org/~germuska/commons-validator/
