Richard, I think you need to specify your dependency in dspace-api as a jar, not as as a war. Wars won't get added to the compile time classpath.
And to remove any circular dependencies, I'd release your hacks as a separate maven jar artifact, and have your war project and the dspace- api depend on that jar.
