Description:

Add optional packages support. Optional packages are resources listed in 
META-INF/MANIFEST.MF as a value of the Class-Path main attribute.

As a workaround it's possible to copy the resources to repository directory and 
specify them in a vendor specific way/DD, e.g. META-INF/openejb-jar.xml.

The suggested approach to handle it is (Dain's email to OpenEJB dev mailing 
list):

[...]Instead I would create a lib directory in the config-store directory for 
the module (i.e., a config-store/${number}/lib directory).  Then, just read in 
the manifest class path entries for the ejb jar, copy them into the lib dir and 
add them to the configuration class-path.  One trick is you must repeat this 
for each jar copied into the lib as each of these can have manifest class path 
entries.  Also watch out for circular dependencies in the manifest class path 
entries.[...]
